Senator SIMMS (South Australia) (15:54): I move: That the Senate— (a) acknowledges that the Australian Christian Lobby does not represent most Christians in this country and are nothing more than a fringe group; (b) condemns the Treasurer (Mr Morrison) for attending the Australian Christian Lobby National Conference on 23 April 2016; and (c) calls on the Prime Minister (Mr Turnbull) to reject the Australian Christian Lobby's request for a temporary suspension to the anti discrimination laws should a plebiscite campaign on marriage equality eventuate. I seek leave to make a short statement. The PRESIDENT: Leave is granted for one minute. Senator SIMMS: The motion I am moving today seeks to expose the Australian Christian Lobby for what they are: an extremist fringe organisation that does not represent the views of a majority of Christians in this country. Honourable senators interjecting— Senator SIMMS: I hear members of the Liberal and Labor parties heckling me. Well, of course, they have been running a protection racket for the ACL for a very long time. They stand up for these homophobes and sexists in this parliament all the time. Well, the Greens are calling it out, and that is the motion that we are moving today. The motion also seeks to condemn Scott Morrison for speaking at the ACL conference recently and sharing the rostrum with these bigots and homophobes. It is appalling to see one of the most senior members of this Turnbull government sharing the rostrum with these bigots and homophobes. Mr Turnbull should stand up to these bigots, and this parliament should send a clear message by supporting this motion.
