Motions

Israel

John PESUTTO (Hawthorn – Leader of the Opposition) (12:17): I desire to move, by leave:

That this house:

(a) notes the Albanese government’s decision to abandon sensible diplomacy and its harsh stance towards our democratic friend Israel;

(b) notes that this decision aligns the federal Labor government with its Labor left faction; and

(c) calls on the Premier to publicly distance himself from his faction’s stance.

Leave refused.
