Same-sex marriage poll is branded 'misleading'

A group campaigning against same-sex marriage has been criticised by equality groups for carrying out a "misleading" and "biased" survey on the issue.

Scotland for Marriage, which is backed by various religious groups, including the Catholic Church, instructed an independent poll on the fiercely debated topic in January.

It claims the results show most Scots (53%) do not think marriage should be redefined to include same-sex relationships.
