STATEMENTS BY MEMBERS › South Gippsland Rural Australians for Refugees, Manchester: Attacks
Mr BROADBENT (McMillan) (13:59): I have received a letter from the South Gippsland Rural Australians for Refugees, outlining their concerns about the plight of refugees. I would like to table that letter. Leave granted. Mr BROADBENT: This morning, along with you, Speaker, the opposition leader and the Prime Minister, we attended the service at the British High Commission. In Manchester, they attacked our children. The times have now moved all of us from protection to prosecution, from defence to offence. As with the UK, this Great South Land will not be cowed by cowards. The SPEAKER: In accordance with standing order 43, the time for members' statements has concluded.
