Health Minister embarrassed by “anti-gay” nominees
Friday, November 28, 2008
Federal Health Minister Nicola Roxon has been embarrassed by her appointment of two men as health ambassadors- both of whom were linked to an anti-gay publication, which said that gay men were more likely to molest than straight men. One of the men refused to back away from the comments- causing him to be sacked. The other, Barry Williams of the Lone Fathers Association, backed away from the publication, as reported on news.com.au, enabling him to stay.
