Australian minister: 'Gay marriage could damage our cattle exports'
Not the bloomin' Onion!
http://www.standard.co.uk/news/world/australian-minister-barnaby-joyce-gay-marriage-could-damage-our-cattle-exports-10367811.html
An Australian minister warned that gay marriage could damage the country's cattle exports because it is seen as "decadent".
Agriculture minister Barnaby Joyce warned of the impact on trading partners in Asia of legalising gay marriage across Australia.
"Where we live economically is south east Asia, that's where our cattle go," Mr Joyce told the ABC network.
"When we go there, there are judgments whether you like it or not that are made about us. They see us as decadent.”
