N Ireland overturns laws on same sex marriage and abortion

The United Kingdom region of Northern Ireland has overturned its laws on same sex marriage and abortion.

In the region, abortion is no longer crime, and same sex marriages, unlike before, can be done legally hereafter.

The removal of the laws has come as a result of the decades-old protest of progressive groups against the government.

Most progressive groups have welcomed the move. Many have gathered in the streets of the country to celebrate their victory over the conservative elements of the region, which has been campaigning against the removal of the laws for decades.

As per a report, the first same sex marriage of the region is going to take place in February next year. The identity of the couple has not been publicised yet.

Some has called this the rebirth of Northern Ireland.

The region is very conservative compared to the rest of the United Kingdom. Not many have expected that this would happen to this region.
