Muslim Mehreen Faruqi fantasises that she gets a lot of stick from Australians because of the colour of her skin. She’s a light brown – little different from a white person with a decent suntan.

Here’s a news flash for this delightful Muslim woman whose presence disgraces the Australian parliament. No, she gets a lot of stick because she’s objectionable and obnoxious. Change the colour of her skin and she would still be objectionable and obnoxious – and an anti-white racist.

As for Lydia Thorpe, she needs a season of psychological therapy. She’s truly the parliament’s nutcase. I congratulate Fatima Payman on her pregnancy and hope her maternal instincts take her from a house in which she doesn’t belong.
