Tory MP Who Opposed Same-Sex Marriage Tells Gay Voter Not To Bother Contacting Him Again

Stewart Jackson sent a blunt response to Laura O’Sullivan after she informed him she had changed her name.

Laura Hawes changed her name to Laura O'Sullivan when she married her girlfriend Jess last year.

So when her local Tory MP, Stewart Jackson, last week sent her a campaigning letter using her old name, she sent him an email back.

Dear Stewart Jackson,

You sent me a letter, I wish to inform you that it was sent to the wrong name, Hawes is my maiden name. As of last October I am happy to say I am married, And have therefore changed my surname to O'Sullivan.

And as my Wife and I enjoying our rights to an equal marriage, something that you did not support we will not, in no un certain terms, be voting for you.

Please never write to me again.

Mrs Laura O'sullivan

The feeling's fully mutual.

Please feel free to never bother me again.

Yours

Stewart Jackson
