Appel4PM 2 Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 I've often wondered about this, and I thought I'd ask: What is the difference between the platform options: "Draft legislation defining marriage as between two persons" and "Withdraw questions from Supreme Court; hold a free vote." Don't they mean the same? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hardrightconservative 5 Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 I've often wondered about this, and I thought I'd ask:What is the difference between the platform options: "Draft legislation defining marriage as between two persons" and "Withdraw questions from Supreme Court; hold a free vote." Don't they mean the same? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No Appel, if I held a free vote, I could vote according to my conscience or my constituent's wishes. Defining marriage as between two persons could or could not be a free vote. I assume that the point of the Centre-Right issue is to make the members of the party tow the party line rather than be a free vote. I hope this clarifies it for you.
