I certainly will not. I will conclude my remarks here. I want to say very clearly that the Australian Greens proudly stand with transgender Australians. We proudly stand with transgender children in this country. We will always stand with them and support them against anything that is divisive or that seeks to demonise them. I want to say to trans people in this country, no matter how old they are, no matter where they come from, no matter their cultural backgrounds—and there are many—that we have their backs in here. They are loved. They are supported. We hear you. We see you. You have a right to exist. You have every human right in this country that everyone else does. The Australian Greens will always stand with trans people, because trans rights are human rights.
