Marriage equality advocates have welcomed a commitment from the Northern Territory Labor Party to a conscience vote on Territory laws allowing same-sex marriages.
北疆土（NT）工党日前已经通过允许工党进行针对同性婚姻立法进行良心投票。

The party made the commitment in response to an election questionnaire from the Australian Christian Lobby.
北疆土工党是在回应澳洲基督教党的几个竞选问卷的时候做出以上声明的。

Australian Marriage Equality national convener, Alex Greenwich said,
“We applaud NT Labor for opening up the possibility of the Northern Territory joining Tasmanian and South Australia in allowing same-sex couples to marry.”
北疆土工党继 塔斯马尼亚，南澳，和坎贝拉之后，对同性婚姻立法开绿灯

“If the Northern Territory were to pass marriage equality it would send a strong message to the rest of the nation that the time has come for national reform.”
如果北疆土通过同性婚姻立法，那么整个澳洲通过同性婚姻也就不远了。

In its response to the ACL questionnaire NT Labor said,
“If there is a proposal to amend the definition of marriage in the Territory, members of the Australian Labor Party will vote according to their conscience.”
北疆土工党说：如果受到关于同性婚姻立法的提案，北疆土工党就会针对提案进行良心投票。

Northern Territorians go to the polls on Saturday in what is predicted to be a close election.

目前，支持同性婚姻的州，向同性婚姻抛橄榄枝的州有：塔斯马尼亚，南澳，堪培拉，北疆土也快了。

本周末澳洲国会会针对一个同性婚姻立法提案进行投票。

站在历史的那一边，大家想好了，站错了，可要遗臭万年的阿！

承认同性婚姻只是早晚，澳洲不可能永远停留在中世纪。
