My question is to the Prime Minister. Do you accept that bombing Syria will not make Australians safer, will not make Syrians safer and will instead increase instability in a country facing the brutality of both ISIS and the Assad regime? Won't it lay the ground for terrorism to grow and for more people to flee and seek refuge? Instead of more bombs, isn't a better approach for Australia to have a one-off additional intake of 20,000 refugees from Syria?
