Four days ago, PM Tony Abbott told Liberal party members that they’re banned from voting ‘Yes’ on marriage equality. It was a dirty trick that could block marriage equality for years.
But now brave politicians are taking a stand. A couple of days ago, MP Tim Watts gave a passionate speech that's gone viral. Four bold politicians from Abbott’s own party have promised to defy the government and vote YES anyway.
It’s the start of a rebellion that could make marriage possible for thousands in weeks rather than years. Here's what we need: a huge global outcry for equality will show these politicians that we’ve got their back. Better yet, it could inspire dozens more to vote for equality.

A cross-party bill on marriage equality will be introduced to the Aussie Parliament next week. The government previously promised that a bill with broad support would be taken seriously. But they’ve broken their word by banning party politicians a free vote on marriage equality.
But 70% of Aussies want marriage equality. And countries from Canada to Ireland to Uruguay have already made it legal for gay and lesbian couples to marry. All Out members speaking up from around the world will remind Liberal politicians that Australia is lagging behind.
Thanks for going All Out,
Andre, Rose, Oscar and the rest of the All Out team.
P.S. At a secret meeting this week, Australia’s Liberal party banned its members from voting YES on marriage equality. Thanks to this sneaky move, the bill could die and marriage equality could be shelved for at least a year!
