Does the honourable member claim to have been misrepresented?

In question time, the member for Isaacs asked a botched question, which wasn't allowed by the Speaker. In that question, he made a couple of claims regarding me, which I wish to correct in the House right now, the first being this claim that I attended some sort of neo-Nazi event. The event he was talking about was a libertarian event called Liberty Fest, all about less government, not authoritarian government, something which I strongly support—limited government, lower taxes and less regulation. He also made a claim that I put a white supremacist statement up on social media. I can tell you that the statement was anything but. For the purposes of the Hansard and House, the statement said:
It's OK to be white.
It’s OK to be Aboriginal.
It’s OK to be Torres Strait Islander.
It’s OK to be South Sea Islander.
It’s OK to be Asian.
It’s OK to be Jewish.
It’s OK to be whatever ethnicity you are.
If you’re for all of the above, good on you. If you’re against any then you’re a racist and that’s fairly unAustralian.
And it’s GREAT to be Australian!
