The Oakham vicar has criticised the Church of England's objections to gay marriage

A Rutland vicar has spoken out in support of same-sex marriage.

Reverand Lee Francis Dehqani of Oakham has publicly criticised the Church of England's objection to gay marriage.

It's as the House of Bishops decided to ban clergy from marrying when same sex marriage becomes legal later this month.

But the vicar, who has a gay brother, says the Church needs to keep up with changes in society.
