Couple Challenge civil partnerships Law

Catherine Doyle and Tom Freeman, a heterosexual couple, seek a civil partnership in London to challenge the law that restricts such partnerships to same-sex couples. They are part of the Equal Love campaign, which aims to change discriminatory marriage laws. The campaign involves eight couples, both gay and heterosexual, who will challenge the law through the courts. The campaigners argue that the current laws violate the Human Rights Act, specifically Articles 8, 12, and 14, which cover privacy, the right to marry, and non-discrimination. The campaign highlights the need for equal treatment for all couples, regardless of sexual orientation.
