- Politician Bob Katter has said ‘people are entitled to their sexual proclivities’
- But a moment later his carefree attitude was replaced by pure frustration
- He said people are ‘torn to pieces’ by crocodiles every three months
- The interview has left people wondering how the two comments were linked
North Queensland Federal MP Bob Katter has bizarrely talked about marriage equality in the same sentence as the growing crocodile violence in his electorate.
Footage of the interview was played on Insight which shows a relaxed Mr Katter brightly speaking about the same-sex marriage debate in a tender tone before things take a turn.
‘I mean, y’know, people are entitled to their sexual proclivities. Let there be a thousand blossoms bloom, as far as I’m concerned,’ he said during a press conference last week.
Cool, calm and collected to angry in a second: Bob Katter gave a strange answer to questions about marriage equality
Moments later the conservative politician’s entire face changed into an expression of anger.
‘But I ain’t spendin’ any time on it, because in the mean time, every three months, a person is torn to pieces by a crocodile in North Queensland,’ he managed to spit out.
Insiders host Barrie Cassidy broke down in hysterics over the sudden mood change, saying ‘So we should put the whole country on hold until we sort out that particular problem?’
The maverick Queensland crossbencher previously said he is so worried about parents losing the right to object to their children being taught the Safe Schools program he wants the law changed.

The Katter’s Australian Party leader and renegade Nationals MP George Christensen, a fellow Queenslander, are working on a parliamentary bill that would give parents the right to pull their kids out of the controversial gender theory lessons.
Mr Katter, who holds the vast far-north Queensland seat of Kennedy, said the legalisation of same-sex marriage would force children into learning about gay sex and relationships.
‘I don’t want anyone to underestimate the damage that is being done here to the people of Australia,’ he told Daily Mail Australia.
‘It opens the way for them to teach same-sex marriage in school.’
