It was made legal in 2004, sort of. Partners of the same sex can have a civil partnership, which gives that couple the exact same rights and responsibilities as those who have had a civil marriage.

It's not the same name, but legally there is little or no distinction between the two.

Yeah, but that's still not really marriage.

I don't know, it's indistinguishable from marriage in a legal sense.

Yeah but not really.

I mean, what if the UK changed the Law so that from now on Muslims can't be called citizens anymore, but instead are to be called "Common Residents."

There is a lot of discrimination shown in the fact that they felt they needed a different name.  It's the same reason most pro-gay groups in the US don't agree with "Civil Unions".
