Description

One man reads a paper with an article headed 'Maurice Williamson Gay Icon' and comments to another that he 'knew a lot of gay guys were lonely, but not that lonely...'. Wider context refers to National MP Maurice Williamson's speech to Parliament when the Marriage Equality Bill passed its third reading in Parliament on 18 April 2013. New Zealand has become the 13th country in the world to legalise gay marriage. In his speech Williamson questioned the likelihood of a 'gay onslaught' and noted the 'big gay rainbow' over his Pakuranga electorate. Williamson's speech went viral, becoming an internet hit and earning him many fans.
