Gay marriage bill 'foolish' right now, Archbishop of Wales says

It would be "brave or foolish" to bring forward a bill for same-sex marriages in church at the moment, the Archbishop of Wales has said.

He spoke after more than half of the Church In Wales' governing body members voted in favour of a law passed for such ceremonies in England and Wales last year.

The secret ballot, external took place at Lampeter, Ceredigion.

Those who voted in favour fell short of the two-thirds needed for change.
