Same-sex marriage Aus: Tim Wilson MP proposes to his partner after bill introduced to House of Reps

[BF]

[quote=ABC News]Liberal MP Tim Wilson has proposed to his long-term partner Ryan Bolger in the House of Representatives, shortly after the same-sex marriage bill was introduced to the Lower House.

The proposal is believed to be the first of its kind in the Lower House of Parliament, and was greeted with applause from all sides of politics and the public gallery.

Mr Wilson has been engaged to the school teacher for nine years and reaffirmed his proposal during a speech on the issue.

Mr Bolger was present in the chamber for the proposal and responded with a clear "yes".

"In my first speech I defined our bond by the ring that sits on both of our left hands," Mr Wilson said.

"They are the answer to the question we cannot ask.

"So there's only one thing left to do; Ryan Patrick Bolger, will you marry me?"[/quote]

MSM won't report this: the guy he proposed to is straight, but under the new law he has to accept a lifetime of marriage or face the firing squad
