Labor kill off same-sex marriage plebiscite

Labor politicians have officially decided to block plebiscite legislation, effectively killing off the public vote on same-sex marriage.

MPs and Senators met at Parliament House a short time ago, where they voted to block the bill put forward by the Coalition.

The Coalition is still expected to introduce the legislation, despite lacking the numbers in the Senate. Greens and key crossbenchers also opposed the public vote.

I’ll bring you more details as they come to hand.
