Conservative Party leader David Cameron has been accused of slipping up over his party's votes on gay equality issues.
Mr Cameron agreed to an interview with Gay Times magazine, which Conservative party sources said he was not expecting to be filmed.
In it, Mr Cameron was asked why did not force his MPs and MEPs to vote for gay equality measures, rather than allowing free votes.
Tory MEPs in the European Parliament refused to support a motion which condemned a new homophobic law in Lithuania last year. The law bans the promotion of "non-traditional" families

While I would like every MP and MEP to vote for any issue that gives gay people the same rights as everybody else, it shouldn't be forced on them by the head of the party.
We live in a democracy where we, the public, have the right to vote (or not vote) in any way we choose, so why should we expect Cameron to force his people to vote? - 2 years ago
