I dispute the claim that Julian Hill is gay. With no evidence to the contrary, it could be assumed that this category was placed for libel.--Radnompieceofgarbage (talk) 05:42, 30 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
He's definitely LGBT; in his maiden speech he refers to it (somewhat obliquely - he mentions his partner David), and Senator Janet Rice lists him among the LGBT parliamentarians here (he's also widely listed among the eight current LGBTI members of parliament elsewhere in the media). This should absolutely be mentioned in the text, but I'm actually having a bit of trouble confirming whether he's gay or bisexual (he was previously married to a woman), so I'm not quite sure how to work it in. (As an aside - libel!?) Frickeg (talk) 12:32, 30 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
That's a good point. I could, very concievably, have an interview with Julian himself and possibly ask him, but as that falls under WP:No original research, and as that would be, frankly, rude, it would be hard to discern his sexual orientation. --Radnompieceofgarbage (talk) 01:14, 31 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
