Tony Abbott’s decision to rule out a conscience vote on marriage equality again shows he is out of step with what most Australians want. He and his shadow cabinet decided yesterday that the Coalition will not change its position on amending the Marriage Act.
I think this contradicts the views of many Liberals who still believe in the liberal tradition of letting individuals have a choice, such as the right to cross the floor if they disagree with their party’s view on a topic.
