A Liberal party candidate in western Sydney shared online posts stating parents who sent their children to public schools were making “the most costly spiritual decision they’ve ever made” and calling homosexuality “one of the many sins that excludes us from the Kingdom of God”.

The party’s Blacktown candidate, Allan Green, also previously expressed support for repealing the right of gay couples to adopt, shared posts warning against Muslim immigration, and said same-sex marriage could cause the abolition of Mother’s and Father’s Day.
