Colin Craig Conservatives leader Colin Craig has confirmed what nobody particularly doubted: he is heterosexual. "I'm not a homosexual. I think probably most people would know that," National's potential next coalition partner told 3 News today. "But I know people who are and I'm quite happy to know people who are. The latest pronouncement from the media's man of the moment comes in the same week he claimed New Zealand women are the most promiscuous in the world. He has been in the spotlight following speculation his party could be the next potential support partner for National, should ACT combust under the leadership of John Banks. Despite saying his personal views on gay issues wouldn't come into his party's policy, Craig now says he is against gay marriage, because "the traditional way people see things matters to them". He believes Prime Minister John Key has caved to being politically correct in stating he is 'not opposed' to gay marriage.
