Your party sided with Labour agin after the majority voted no to a treaty. And doidnt one of your Green MPs go to a Palestinian rally on our dollar and took there partner. again on our dollar Your party is nothing to be proud of
This terror attack on the Jewish community is an attack on all of us. This reprehensible act of antisemitic violence is not who we are.
We will hold each other tightly in the coming days and weeks, and show care and compassion.
The antisemitic hatred of these men will not divide us.

Labor has zero intention to represent not only what Aussies need but what we want 😡
