He claims that it will create division, by not supporting it he is creating the division. If both parties support it there's no mainstream voice for those against it, marginalising them. The Liberals were really good at convincing people to vote no, I wonder if they could ever use that capability to support something good for once

We suffer these same problems in the US.

I'd say that's where our politicians draw inspiration from unfortunately

I'm terribly sorry.

Speaking as someone who is very left-leaning, I was thrilled to hear that Australia finally voted in a more liberal government.

I truly hope they're able to keep the majority.
