Minister, the difference between your party and mine is that we have the moral courage, and you are cowards. You moved a motion at the Labor Party platform conference in 2021 calling for the Labor government to recognise Palestine, but disgracefully your government has voted against it twice already. Now you're punishing the only Labor member who has had the courage to vote for recognising Palestine. How long must we wait before you join the 147 other countries and recognise Palestine? (Time expired)
