@AJEnglish Well done to Penny, the PM and the Labor govt for making a bold symbolic statement. We need some balance on Palestinian issues and this, whilst it will not go down well with the Tories, is a correct one.
@AJEnglish Yes thank you @senator Wong & the ALP. If we could step further and stop the persecution of Palestinians by Israel by providing support as we are doing for Ukraine!
