In short:
NSW Police are facing fresh calls to be banned from marching at the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras.
Three resolutions relating to police marching in the parade will be put to a vote at the Mardi Gras annual general meeting tomorrow.
NSW Premier Chris Minns has slammed the potential ban despite LGBTQ+ community consultation showing a majority of members do not want police to take part.
Do you mean the double-murder of Luke Davies and Jesse Baird? The alleged murderer in that case is gay himself, so it hasn’t been interpreted as a hate crime, or indicative of homophobia in the police force, if that’s what you mean.

I do yeah. I dont much care that the officer was gay, he still killed a gay man. regardless of interpersonal relationships or anything like that. If you were a member of the governing body of the Mardi Gras that would give you pause I imagine.
