Strong similiarities in opposition to gay marriage
Onchan MHK Zac Hall may have taken parts of his speech against gay marriage from more than one source.
Earlier today, claims emerged on the internet he’d plagiarised some of his speech in the House of Keys from an Irish newspaper.
Now, however, more evidence has emerged showing strong similarities with a speech a Conservative MP gave in the House of Commons last October as the UK parliament discussed civil partnerships.
In this audio clip, we’ve overlaid both speeches, Mr Hall on one channel and East Wortham and Shoreham MP Tim Loughton on the other:
