MALLM TURNBULL'S LEGACY: GAY MARRIAGE, TPP AND THE ENOMY
* malcolm turnbull on gay marriage *
Turnbull was asked about homophobic mpaign materials disvered at the weekend, cludg a poster found Melbourne urgg Atralians to “stop the fags” and rrectly claimg that children of gay parents disproportnately suffer prime mister said that Atralian society “is built on a foundatn of mutual rpect, so I plore disrpectful, abive language whether is directed at young gay people, or people of other religns, or people of other rac”. They are not homophobic, they don’t nigrate gay people.
Are not gay people gettg married, the threats are sertn, celty, neglect, abandonment, difference – those are the threats.

MALLM TURNBULL IS BLASTED AFTER BOASTG ABOUT GAY MARRIAGE
'Former Prime Mister Tony Abbott's sister Christe Forster - an outspoken supporter of gay marriage spe her brother's opposn - also took to social media a year on om the rult announcement. Thoands of people lerally dancg the and old, gay and straight (mostly gay) revellg the moment that people won over a cy famo for a grim adherence to l and orr, police lmly watched on as party-goers passed around beers purchased om the lol bottle ACT's Chief Mister even skolled a Corona on stage (wh a slice of lemon , of urse) sg stranger hugged me and said, "Don't ever change.

REFLECTNS ON GAY MARRIAGE - MICHAEL KIRBY LECTURE 2012
Gay women have proved more likely than men to marry, wh the most weddgs celebrated NSW and Victoria. Marriage equaly mpaigner Sally Rugg said the procs was not somethg gays and lbians uld ever celebrate.
Michael has also been a mpaigner for what has been termed “gay marriage” and to his dismay this is how he is bt known today not least bee he is a gay man and has lived wh his partner Johan for over forty years[1]. So I tst Michael will five me tonight if, rather than ncentratg on some other aspects of his work the field of human rights, I ncentrate on the issue of gay marriage which is a particularly timely one given there are several bills the Parliament which, if passed, would have the effect of allowg unns between two people of the same sex to be scribed as a marriage.
And the Governments of the Uned Kgdom and of France, which already provi for civil unns for same sex upl, have announced they will legislate for gay marriage as well[3]. However over time as I have reflected on this qutn of “marriage equaly” I have found the arguments agast gay marriage ls and ls nvcg.
ATRALIAN PRIME MISTER SH GAY MARRIAGE TO LAW
Many people who oppose gay marriage do so bee, generally for relig reasons, they regard homosexualy as herently wrong, a crime the ey of God.
Acrdg to the Book of Levic God speakg to Mos scribed homosexual acts as an abomatn and lls for those who practise them to be put to ath[5].
So no matter how sful some Atralians may thk homosexual acts may be, no matter how praved and disorred or worthy of the fate of Sodom and Gomorrah they nsir them to be, the are opns which are not reflected our laws today. Of urse for many years now homosexual acts have been lawful, and same sex relatnships regnised by the law. Only a very, very small mory of Atralians would seek to have this state of affairs changed so as to recrimalise homosexual acts or disentle homosexual upl om the var entlements they enjoy followg the reforms of the last or so.
'HYPOCRL' TURNBULL UNRMED GAY MARRIAGE SHIFT
Certaly none of the Church lears who are volly opposed to legalisg gay marriage have suggted any change to the law as stands. Another source of objectn to gay marriage relat to children. Havg said all that, this argument agast gay marriage stat that if gay upl are regnised as beg married they will be more likely to be able to adopt children.
First, even though there is no legal regnn of gay marriage Atralia, nohels same sex upl are able to adopt children New South Wal, the ACT and Wtern Atralia and to a limed extent Tasmania In almost all s, so I am advised, this volv a person adoptg the blogil child of their partner – “a known child” ado. Turng to another argument agast gay marriage we have the proposn, wily put around, that will unrme the tradnal stutn of marriage.
The rponse, I might add, was 73% favour of gay marriage[10]. It angers and sadns me to suffer the homophobia displayed by those ristg this simple change.
TURNBULL SAYS PLEBISCE ON GAY MARRIAGE WILL OVERSHADOW COALN'S MSAG
I am sure that every gay person has alt wh that sense of “excln” at some pot life. And I have to say that I am utterly unpersuad by the proposn that my marriage to Lucy, or ed any marriage, is unrmed by two gay men or two lbians settg up hoe down the road — whether is lled a marriage or not. The threat to marriage is not the gays.

But, do the bishops serly image that legalisg gay marriage will rult thoands of parti to heterosexual marriag sudnly cidg to get divorced so they n marry a person of the same sex? Are not the gays who seek the right to marry, to formalise their mment to each other, holdg up a mirror to the heterosexuals who are marryg ls equently and divorcg more often? John Howard was not thkg of gay upl when he said 1995 “A stable functng fay provis the bt welfare support system yet vised.
So I don’t support gay marriage spe beg a Conservative. I support gay marriage bee I’m a Conservative.
MALLM TURNBULL MANDS GAY MARRIAGE LAW BY CHRISTMAS
Those who nmn gay marriage, yet are silent or different to the breakdown of marriage and divorce are, my view, missg the real issue.
Another argument agast gay marriage is the taxonomic one. In my judgement this is the most wily stated argument agast gay marriage.
I don’t doubt that explas why the legalisatn of gay marriage has been ls ntroversial there.
ATRALIA’S LEAR CALLS FOR NATNAL GAY MARRIAGE VOTE
The Labor Party has rolved that there will be a nscience vote on this issue, although the Party’s policy is to support gay marriage. The Liberal Party has rolved not to have a nscience vote on this issue, and the Party’s policy is to oppose gay marriage. A society which promot eedom and equaly unr the law should acrd gay men and women this right.
MALLM TURNBULL LOOKS FORWARD TO MACKLEMORE SGG ‘GAY ANTHEM’
Many argue that the Liberals’ lack of a nscience vote means the gay marriage bills will not pass. In my judgement while the numbers are not there for gay marriage this parliament, they are certaly there for civil unns.
