LIBERALS DYSFUNCTION THE GREATEST BARRIER TO MARRIAGE EQUALITY

Internal divisions in the Liberal Party are the biggest impediment to making a marriage equality a reality in Australia.

Australians are sick of waiting while Liberal MPs play their pathetic games.

Christopher Pyne lavishes praise on himself behind closed doors, but is as weak as Malcolm Turnbull when it comes to making something happen.

If Mr Pyne has a secret plan as he boasted behind closed doors, then tell us what it is.

This circus within the Liberal Party is an insult to the hundreds of thousands of Australians who are desperately waiting for marriage equality to happen.

The coalition is deeply divided - watch the conservative wing of the Liberal Party do all it can to distance itself from Mr Pyne's comments today.

It's time to make marriage equality a reality - and it's time for Malcolm Turnbull and his warring Ministers to get out of the way.

It's time for Mr Turnbull to grow a spine and stand up to Tony Abbott, Peter Dutton, Scott Morrison and the other haters in the Liberal Party.

And it's time for Malcolm Turnbull to dump his wasteful, hurtful, $300 million plebiscite and allow a free vote in Parliament.That is what the majority of the Australian population want.
