SUPPORT for same-sex marriage has risen to its highest level, with a new poll revealing nearly two-thirds of the community want change as pressure continues to build on Julia Gillard in the wake of Tasmania’s move to introduce its own laws.
The Galaxy research — commissioned by Australian Marriage Equality — also shows 52 per cent of Coalition voters want same-sex marriage reform and 44 per cent of voters would more likely support Tony Abbott if he allowed Coalition MPs a conscience vote on the issue.
