“…In recent years, many analyses have focussed on marriage equality debates in particular, driven by the fact that (proposed) changes in legislation in several countries sparked a fairly wide public discussion. For example, there are studies on discourses of marriage equality in the UK focussing on discussions in Parliament (Bachmann, 2011;Findlay, 2017;Love & Baker, 2015), the radio show Moral Maze (Van der Bom, Coffey-Glover, Jones, Mills, & Paterson, 2015), and the UK press Turner et al, 2018).
