It happened today, on the 7th December 2017 Parliament has passed the bill for same sex marriage to finally become law in Australia.

There was  a standing ovation in Parliament and 25 minutes later  The Informer went to air.

For the past 13 years, Equal Love Melbourne has been on the ground fighting for our equal rights in Victoria. Less than an hour after the historic announcement was made, we spoke to Campaign Manager Anthony Wallace about what it means to finally have what you have fought so hard for, and where to from here.
