Labor wants you to be ashamed of our Australian flag 🇦🇺
I want to start by expressing my regret over the remarks made by Senator Dolega and the offensive accusations directed at coalition senators and members. According to Labor, it now seems that draping oneself in the Australian flag and showing pride in it is considered offensive.
I accept the interjection, Senator Dolega. You criticized some of us for having the boldness to wear the Australian flag and be proud of our country. How dare you claim that is dog whistling?
Through you, Chair, how dare Senator Dolega suggest it is dog whistling to be proud of our country and our flag.
Many people aspire to live in our nation because it is great, with one of the most successful migration histories worldwide. We are a proud migrant nation and a successful multicultural country that includes Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders who have been here for thousands of years, those who arrived decades ago, and recent newcomers.
Author's summary: The speaker defends pride in the Australian flag and multicultural identity, opposing claims that such patriotism signals offensive intent.
