Why did no one on the panel call him what he is? A narrow-minded homophobe.

more like the best question ever, hick question and hick looking wonderful.

Wow....strong supporter of the ACL and Peter Madden maybe?

meh, I've heard worst

Was that Tootsie on the Q & A panel?

I hope Mrs Doubtfire is on next week

I disagree that this was all that bad. SameSame has, aping the mainstream media, chosen the outrageous to bring to the fore. I suggest watching the show: the initial question was a joke and the (conservative) audience didn't support it. Then there followed a series of well reasoned rebuttals. Barnaby was clearly unconfortable being put on the spot and his response was flaccid. This was, in fact, another good step forward to a reasoned argument and the audience was both sympathetic and supportive.

We need scary people to keep talking out - it gets us closer to equality.

I couldnt believe the first question. seriously ....

Typical Queenslander, it's people like him in this state who voted for the LNP knowing full well that they want to take GLBT people's limited rights away, and it looks like that's about to happen in a couple of weeks.

cbf watching it, why waste my soul on Q&A. I'm not even old enough to be a politician yet.

once living near the region of Toowoomba, I am pleasantly surprised by the majority of the audience's reaction to those two different questions ... perhaps Toowoomba is becoming less red-necked ... finally ...
the responses by some of the panel ... i am not surprised by B Joyce's lack of knowledge of laws that discriminate ...
as for the idiot with the first question ... unfortunately there are still enough of those jerks who believe all that crap to cause heartache in the streets ...
but the fact he asked the questi

I liked Barnaby's response, the part in which he states the days where no one knows or has a family member who is gay are gone, and we should treat people how they come. I also think its good that these questions do come out and are debated so people with these thoughts can seriously think about their fears, and hopefully re rationalise what they have been told.

Oh good lord, and he's British. Gives my community a bad name.
