As Senator Cash was discussing, discrimination, the promotion of extremism or attempts to vilify have no place, whether they be on the grounds of somebody's gender, sexuality, age, race or faith, and all of those matters rightly deserve condemnation. Senator Keneally is making a number of assertions in relation to what is being posted by the member for Dawson. I don't have details of those, but I'm sure that, if Senator Keneally wishes, she can provide them to me at a later point. Obviously, we would condemn any such actions that promoted anti-Semitism, just as we would condemn them if they were promoting any sense of lack of tolerance for people of any other faith, or for any other attribute that is worthy of respect.
