Javier Gómez-Navarro said mothers of gay children wanted to see them out of the house.

The ex Socialist Minister for Trade and Tourism, Javier Gómez-Navarro, who is currently President of the High Council of Chambers of Commerce, has said that the mothers of homosexuals want their children to be diplomats so as not to have them at home. He said mothers of other children in Spain wanted to see them become lawyers.

His homophobic comments came during the Nueva Economía FDorum held yesterday in Madrid and the Spanish Federation of Lesbians and Gays has responded with indignation. President Tony Poveda said ‘His words reflect the simple-mindedness of this gentleman’.
