A Parliamentary committee report on bills proposing the legalisation of gay marriage in Australia said on Monday that a tide supporting its realisation has been spawned and to legally prevent Aussie couples from formalising their union was both “un-defendable and unjust.”
“The love between same-sex couples is no different,” The Brisbane Times reported Labor backbencher Graham Perret as saying on today as he informed his colleagues that more than 70 per cent of those who participated in the online survey put up by the Social Policy and Legal Affairs Committee added their support for the private member bills now pending at the House of Representatives.
