The definition of marriage in the dictionary supports Abbott.
Why should it? Labor aand the Greens are already for it. The Libs doing it would be a completely transparent back flip.
Labor aren’t.
True, but theyre further evolved on the issue than the libs currently are
…And still currently less evolved than the State of Alabama lol
Tonys heart and mind is locked in 1950s bigotry, I say leopard and spots!
NO Tony Abbott is a total moron. He would welcome the boat people in and legalize the Burqa if he thought it would get him votes. He’s a
It’s not a big enough issue to help this government
It would be just like the slimey arsehole to pull something like a full U-turn out of the bag to try and save his fucked up career. And plenty would be stupid enough to fall for it.
Bahahahaha! I’m not even going to waste my time on a man who has disowned his sister, the guy’s a nong, a prick, a bully, a lost silvertail. Click through on this, life’s to effing short!
Agreed. He’s a vile man. So why not extract this out of him before kicking him out?
Why can I see this used in the next election campaign
Don’t think so! He had the chance and blew it!
Yeah, I don’t want to see marriage equality being shopped around as a quick save for Tony Abbott’s career. I’d like to think that gay men and women and their supporters in this country would be a bit smarter than to be led to vote for him again based on a single issue, no matter how important it is to them personally. There are other factors to consider, and nobody deserves to win a seat on what should be a basic human right. Besides Abbott withheld the opportunity on a conscience vote in order to garner support. He’s not after the pink vote he’s after conservatives because they still outnumber us.
Tony is a man of the past. He just doesn’t realise it yet.
No!
Well lets face it its time to move forward…,with a tick or a kick otherwise we will just continue to move backwards with this ridiculous form of Politicking.
even if he did through desperation he will still be kicked out
Just remove the WANKER!!!!
Are you able to narrow that down a bit Paul? Canberra is full of wankers…..
Yup
No way his done his dash with me that’s not gonna make me change my mind on him why should it he has stuffed our country enough time for him to go
Call it schadenfreude, but I love the idea of the only decent thing Tones will be remembered for is gay marriage !
Tralala..
He’s a bigot, and the only person left preventing marriage equality happening. We should be campaigning to have him ousted. Please someone point to ONE human rights or social issue where he’s softened since becoming PM? I remember his sister & daughters telling Liberal gay voters in 2013 that the man would change his mind one day – what a fraud that was. He didn’t take this job to improve anyone’s human rights, it’s not on his agenda. The public now hates the man and want him out, and his party may just do it sometime soon, but gay rights campaigners still want to suck up to him. Pathetic waste of time. Instead of converting a homophobe like Tony, we could be supporting all the other politicians who aren’t threatened by same-sex relationships.
I would hope most of the pubic who support marriage equality are intelligent enough to see this for what it is a desperate effort to increase approval /popularity ratings and with most of abbots spin would be reversed if he was given the chance
He has shown he has no conscience, too sad many of his cohorts are in the same. They sprout their Christianity but show none.
Grant Humphries you have won my best saying award for 2015. Legend mate.
How dare he use us a a platform for mord votes and popularity. FO Abott.
TA is a moron!
That is the beauty of challenging the church. Pope Francis is not going to subpoena him to the Vatican. One would do it for the folk of AUS.
He would only be supporting it to get back in power, for all the wrong reasons really, and he’d probably abolish the bill before it was passed as long as he gets your votes he doesn’t care about anyone.
He would do it last time not even for his sister, so don’t hold your breath waiting for ” new ” tony , what is it ? new number 4
It shouldn’t be a conscience vote. He should have the balls to just lead by dignified example and make a stand for gay marriage. But we’ll see none of this from him bc he’s driven by his personal beliefs. He doesn’t believe in human rights.
Mmmm. I might help a little. But I think the damage has been done.
No sorry, He’s done too much harm to undo anything
We have a saying at my house C@!TS FU@!ED
bahahahahahaha YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
He needs to fuck off
