Senator FARUQI (New South Wales) (16:03): I ask that general business notice of motion No. 604, standing in my name and the names of Senator Siewert and Senator Di Natale, related to Black Lives Matter and First Nation people be taken as a formal motion. The PRESIDENT: An objection has been noted, so that has been denied. Senator FARUQI: In lieu of suspending standing orders, I seek leave to make a short statement. The PRESIDENT: Leave is granted for one minute. Senator FARUQI: I have to say: shame on the Liberals for putting on par a motion put up by Senator Pauline Hanson on 'all lives matter' and the Greens' motion on 'black lives matter'. Senator Hanson's motion refuses to acknowledge the inequalities that exist for our Indigenous people in Australia in terms of discrimination, disadvantage, violence and marginalisation, whereas the Greens' motion is actually about us here, today, acknowledging all those disadvantages and that discrimination. It is actually about state violence in Australia that still exists against Indigenous people in Australia. It is about committing us all and the government to doing something about it. If you don't want to do something about it, don't try and hide behind motions. Have the guts to take a position and vote likewise. (Time expired)
