Two issues have been prominent in the news in the last few days – homosexual marriage and multiculturalism, especially in regard to Islam. The actions of the Greens and Labor Party MPs who voted for homosexual marriage betray their gross hypocrisy on these two matters.
Multiculturalism requires that members of parliament should take in account aspirations of minorities they are supposed to represent. I just wonder how closely the Labor and Greens MPs who have large muslim populations in their electorates, up to 20 per cent in some cases, consulted with those muslim minorities over how they felt about homosexual marriage. I don’t know too many muslims who tolerate homosexuality.
