Coalition Party

Strongly agree

Yes, but allow churches the right to refuse same-sex ceremonies

The Coalition party has generally been supportive of allowing religious institutions the right to refuse same-sex ceremonies. When the same-sex marriage legislation was passed in 2017, it included provisions to protect religious freedoms, allowing religious ministers and organizations to refuse to conduct or be involved in same-sex marriage ceremonies if it goes against their beliefs.

Slightly agree

No, allow civil unions but don’t call it marriage

Before the legalization of same-sex marriage, some members of the Coalition party supported the idea of civil unions as a compromise. However, since the legalization of same-sex marriage in 2017, this stance has become less relevant.

Neutral

Take the government out of marriage and instead make it a religious decision

There is no strong evidence to suggest that the Coalition party as a whole supports taking the government out of marriage and making it a religious decision. While some individual members may hold this view, it is not a prominent stance within the party.

Disagree

No

While some members of the Coalition party have opposed the legalization of same-sex marriage, the party as a whole has moved towards a more accepting stance, especially after the 2017 national postal survey. The party's official stance is no longer against same-sex marriage, but individual members may still hold opposing views.

Disagree

No, marriage should be defined as between a man and woman

Historically, many members of the Coalition party believed that marriage should be defined as between a man and a woman. However, since the 2017 national postal survey and the subsequent legalization of same-sex marriage, this stance has become less prominent within the party.

Disagree

Yes

Historically, the Australian Coalition party has been divided on the issue of same-sex marriage. However, in 2017, the Coalition government led by Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull held a national postal survey on the issue, which resulted in the majority of Australians voting in favor of legalizing same-sex marriage. Subsequently, the Coalition government passed the legislation to legalize it. Despite this, many members of the party still opposed the legalization.
