Gay Liberation Front

So it turns out that the gay reform laws in Britain have sparked more than a little bit of interest in Australia. The Sydney Morning Herald has reported that gay rights groups are seeking to meet with Howard to discuss possible reform in the laws concerning the civil rights of gays and lesbians. Although it seems that our PM is strongly against it - stating that 'Marriage is between a man and a woman', which is no surprise considering his conservative inclination. However, he is in favour of removing discriminatory acts on same-sex partnerships, despite his conservative views.

The ABC has also commented on this - although, it is a very similar and much shorter article than the SMH one.
