Going down

The Marriage (Gender Clarification) Amendment Bill comes before Parliament today - and according to the Herald, is expected to be voted down. Good riddance. Meanwhile, Tony Milne has a breakdown of the expected numbers here. It's a pleasant surprise to see the Maori Party likely to come out against it (their response to my lobbying was relatively non-commital, promising only to discuss it at the next caucus meeting) - and somewhat depressing to see ACT, the so-called "liberal party", expected to vote in support. I wonder what their excuse will be?

I'll post a voting list as soon as I get hold of one, so we'll know who the guilty are.
