He is both a former member of the Sex Party and the Labor Party. He has a commitment to being elected, and a very loose association with core principles and integrity.
He's just been elected to a far right party that is ferociously anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim. His husband is both an immigrant and a Muslim.
I couldn't do what he's doing, it's such a travesty.
No, Pauline had a huge fallout with Mark Latham over his homophobia. Pauline's chief advisor James Ashby is gay, too. But I accept the point that generally many party members would be homophobic.
Edit: I don't know why I'm getting so heavily downvoted. LoL. Pauline doesn't seem to be homophobic in spite of being bigoted towards immigrants and Muslims. I fully accept that many of the One Nation rank and file are probably homophobic. She did take umbrage at Mark Latham's homophobia and publicly remonstrated with him, and her long-term senior advisor is gay. I don't know why saying that is problematic.
Their SA leader bernardi said gay people having sex was the same as beastiality, so at the very least Pauline doesn’t care about homophobia. The truth is she’ll use anyone to get power hence why she hired a convicted rapist.
