According to a recent article (The Australian, March 27, 2017, p. 6), Nick Xenophon says that the wording of section 18 C is “non-negotiable.” The NXT are opposed to reform of section 18 C, but support an overhaul of the Human Rights Commission.
Already, there is a movement to water down changes to see if the NXT allow it through. Why does a so-called pragmatic group suddenly have such a strong position, which is beyond negotiation? Say it again Pauline, “please explain.”
It is a sheer disgrace that these so-called champions of freedom are backing a law that has clearly demonstrated its ill effects in numerous cases. NXT falls into line with the multicult-ethnic power groups on this one, not with the champions of freedom. They are even worse than Turnbull. Send the NXT an email or letter and ask for a justification of their position, especially South Australian readers.
There can be no forgiveness for this. There needs to be a campaign against them in their home base of sleepy South Australia to have them thrown out. One Nation needs to step up to the plate and give them a good political hiding. Start with what they have done on this issue. Get your file going now!
There needs to be some investigative journalism done about why a so-called watch dog/freedom group are actually supporting a law that gave us the Bolt, QUT and Bill Leak cases. They need a public grilling over hot political coals for this, and then they need to be kicked out of office.
As I have said many times, multiculturalism is not consistent with democracy and liberal values such as free speech, and section 18 C is a symbol of the wrong turn that Australia has taken.
