Labor will not be supporting this motion. The government's marriage equality postal survey was a waste of time and money. We don't need another one based on a thought bubble from Senator Hanson. Is the senator suggesting we need to cap population or have a policy on how many kids families can have? Labor sees this for what it is: another swipe from Senator Hanson at migrants. Labor are proud that Australia is a nation built on immigration, and we have welcomed 7.5 million immigrants since World War II, who have helped build Australia into the strong, vibrant and multicultural society it is today.

Question negatived.
