I refer to recent research which demonstrates 55 per cent of voters support a parliamentary vote on marriage equality. Support for the Turnbull government's plebiscite has fallen to 38 per cent and falls to 20 per cent when voters are made aware of its costs and the fact that it is not binding on this parliament. Does the Attorney-General consider the majority of Australians to be fools?
