Yeah that's right Tony, it's always Shorten's fault.
Judging by the polls the majority of Australians can see through Abbot's B.S.
I'm not sure that I'd rate electricity as the number 1 issue but it's up there certainly.Of course it should, followed by the future of the economy, housing affordability and the old staples health and education.
Plebiscite on a republic - good
Plebiscite on same sex marriage - bad
That's Electricity Bill for you, the ultimate opportunist. I think the polls have something to say about the preferred PM, and it's not Bill.
Agreed, a plebiscite is the best way to decide this.
It's a social issue not a political one.
Yeah they're just stacking the deck.Because it shouldn't take a vote by peers to give a minority group the same right as the rest of us for something they're born with through no choice of their own. Furthermore it will cost at least $100 million and will be non-binding, we will still have spent $100 million for Abbott, Dutton etc to still vote no.

They already do raise children????the gay lobby will assume that if they can marry then they should have a right to raise children, which I don't believe the majority would approve of.

Your previous comment is baffling. Why would the "gay lobby" want to push for rights that SS couples already have after SSM is legalised?A lot of other things happen too, that doesn't mean they are good.

Have you got any information on how the Federal Government can introduce legislation that will override the existing State legislation? Whilst there may be able to 'stop' the status being recognised under some Federal acts (tax, welfare etc.), I do not think the Federal Government has any way, in layman's terms, of saying 'you cannot do this.'The gay parenting debate was decided in State Parliament quietly and behind closed doors on shaky evidence. This question should be put to a plebiscite as well.

Federal Law over rides State Law as far as I know.
Reference Federal euthanasia laws that overrode State laws allowing it.
