Since winning Moore in 2013, colleagues have warmly described Ian Goodenough’s performance as ‘adequate’, ‘sufficient’ and ‘ok, I guess’.
A member of the evangelical Church, Ian Goodenough does not support same-sex marriage and has argued that children raised by same-sex couples will suffer from mental illness. If you meet Ian, best not to remind him that Jesus had two daddies.
