LONDON -- British lawmakers have voted overwhelmingly in favor of a bill to legalize same-sex marriages.
The government-proposed bill would enable same-sex couples to get married in both civil and religious ceremonies, provided that the religious institution consents.
In a first House of Commons vote on Tuesday, lawmakers voted 400 to 175 in support of the legislation. More votes are expected.
