Basically, although the thought of it is fantastic, and it would be awesome if it did happen, having a prime minister who is gay is potentially a very bad idea. it does suck that this is the reality, but it is what it is and we may just have to wait a little while longer for our time.
The affect that it could have on LGBT youth if there was to be slander towards him could strongly affect the progress we have made/ are making towards the acceptance of LGBT youth being comfortable within themselves. This is due to the strong affect role models have on children.
I also fear that having a gay prime minster could also have a strong affect on the nation in terms of acceptance with other countries. As stated previously, 76 countries have laws against homosexuality and have quite strong stances against it. this may affect our ability to work these countries in the future.
