Defending free speech
13 FEBRUARY 2017: I spoke in defence of free speech at a fundraiser on Friday night. You can read the speech here or link to the video.
Supplanting Australian law with Sharia should cost citizenship
7 NOVEMBER 2016: Today I called for citizenship to be revoked from new residents who broke Australian law in order to comply with Sharia law during a speech in parliament on forced marriages. Political correctness should not stop Australia from upholding and enforcing Australian law, including for those who voluntarily came to Australia.
Referendum will resolve marriage question
THE people should determine the definition of marriage in a constitutional referendum that offers voters two clear choices about that definition.I believe there should be a constitutional referendum and it should offer the people the choice between two definitions of marriage to be inserted into the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Australia.At present, the Constitution does not define marriage in Section 51 (xxi); it merely states that the Commonwealth has the power to make laws with respect to marriage.
