Leave refused.

Gabrielle DE VIETRI (Richmond) (12:41): I move, by leave:

That this house:

(1) notes that the Victorian Labor government has declared that it stands with Israel, that the recent US proposal to take over Gaza and forcibly displace its 2 million inhabitants is a violation of international law that would amount to ethnic cleansing, that Israel has declared support for this US proposal and that Israel is continuing violent raids across the West Bank; and

(2) calls on this Parliament to reverse its position and on the government to end all diplomatic, military and economic ties with Israel.
