An IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO THE AUSTRALIAN MUSLIM COMMUNITY

Hon.Shaoquett Moselmane

Dear Friend Mr. Zafar Hussain,

Please find enclosed by speech, today’s  21 August 2013 SMH article revealing The Liberal Party's preferencing the controversial anti-Islam Rise Up Australia Party ahead of Labor and the Greens in the Victorian Senate race and nationals preferencing One Nation.

In preferencing ONE Nation and Rise up Australia Party, Tony Abbot and his coalition partners are legitimising racism and endorsing political parties’ vilification of the Islamic community.

Labor will always fight racism and stand up against One Nation.

Labor Party policy has and always will be to preference One Nation last. Any candidate who wants to demonstrate at this election that they do not stand for racism should therefore preference the Coalition and One Nation last.


The Hon. Shaoquett Moselmane MLC.
Level 11, Room 1116.
