Long-time homophobic MP Fred Nile is red-faced today after Parliament’s IT audit suggests he checked porn sites – clicking them up to 200,000 times.

The Daily Telegraph has the scoop, but Nile today claims his staff were using his log-in to conduct research purposes. No doubt they were just Googling the ‘Sex Party’.

The Christian Democrat adds that a huge 200,000 hit-count on the suspect’ NSFW sites is surely “impossible.”

Nile, 75, is holding on, though another NSW politition’s career is over after he was similarly discovered having accessed porn at work. Ports Minister Paul McLeay yesterday resigned following his net history revelation.

Vile Nile

Today’s scandal follows a long line of attacks against our LGBT communities from Fred Nile, from the early ‘80s right up to this week.

Wading unhelpfully into the NSW debate on same-sex couples adopting children, he bizarrely claimed at a rally on Tuesday that some women would abort their children rather than risk them being raised by gay couples.

The Bible-thumper’s hatred towards homosexuality is well-documented through his long political career. He used to frequently state that being gay was an “immoral and unnatural lifestyle choice” and described Mardi Gras as a “public parade of immorality and blasphemy.” He has also labeled his Green Party rivals as “anti-family.”
