Face-palm

It's so wonderful to live in a modern democratic society where politicians know exactly what matters to their constituents. [/sarcasm] Go The Panel. I love you guys!

Charlie Pickering did really well there. I'm spitting chips at Katter's refusal to take homophobia seriously - he must know the suicide rate among gay and lesbian Australians is as high as the suicide rate among indigenous Australians - and both groups are surely as important as the farmers he mentions who are also killing themselves.

Yup. He was already labelled "ignorant dickhead" in my internal filing system. He has now so far exceeded the words currently in my internal filing system that there simply are no words for him. I'm glad Natasha was on the panel that night too.

Yes, she did well, too. How hard would it be for Katter to say: 'Comparing gay and lesbian people to pedophiles is offensive and my party won't allow it'?

The fact that he can't say it, means he agrees with it, ck. After all he has shown himself to be a very homophobic man. He can't even accept his own brother.
