Do not be fooled by this stupidly vote-grabbing stunt of a thought bubble cleaver tactic by the Labor and Liberal mobs! We as LGBTI voters are being toyed and played with like a sex toy!

A gay man voting/supporting the homophobic Liberal Party – is just like a Jew voting/supporting the anti-Jew Nazi Party!

The Liberal Party are ANYTHING BUT Liberal!

We must welcome all politicians support marriage equality – the only way to win is to have a majority of politicians voting in favour.

We are diverse and belong everywhere – there are lesbians in the National Party and gay men in the Liberal party.

If you think I am impressed by the expression of one reasonable idea, from a man in a party seething with white elitist fascist war mongering climate destroying persecutory bullshit ideas. YOU ARE WRONG.

Only a twisted demented self loathing gay with zero intellectual integrity would belong to that party. Go to hell you vandalising war monger, and please turn straight. Floor your leader and auction your Arse on eBay.

He and Tim Wilson are game changers, I may not agree with their politics but they have seen the light! Well done!

Better late than never, Kevin Rudd was the same and various other politicians on both sides (Labor and Liberal)!

I know gay marriage will not be possible within Australia until at least 2020 the way things are going politically and socially!

Better late than never, but what worries me is that he has been so out of touch on this issue, what else is he not up to speed on?

Good for him.

There is no good reason to deny that we must keep evolving until an adult, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, monogamy or polyamory, race, or religion is free to share love, sex, residence, and marriage (and any of those without the others) with any and all consenting adults. Polyamory, polygamy, open relationships are not for everyone, but they are for some. The limited same-gender freedom to marry is a great and historic step, but is NOT full marriage equality, because equality “just for some” is not equality. Let’s stand up for EVERY ADULT’S right to marry the person(s) they love. Get on the right side of history!

If Dean is genuine I support him 100%

If he’s using this tragedy for political reasons

Tacky, opportunistic and sadly he’s just as f…..ed up as that other gay right winger

How low can we go in this country with such greedy and selfish politicians

Ugh ugh ugh

Hope he’s a good guy.

He and Tim Wilson are controversial , i agree however they are game-changers and should be applauded.

i despise their politics but welcome this move.

Now let’s hope they stop playing identity politics with the community and initiate real change in policy and that law to marry..

well done!!

In reply to Stephen Harris. How can it be a tragedy to have someone start supporting equality? That's what we'd like everyone to do!

What a pathetic little man. He should have got out into his constituency – the whole of Western Australia – long ago and found that marriage equality has vast majority support. It is a tragedy that it’s taken a man’s murder to change “the mind of this “staunchly conservative, devoutly Christian monarchist”.
