I note that The Australian, March 22, 2017, p1, says that Senator Nick Xenophon was an “immediate barrier to the reform plan, signalling he could accept changes to how complaints are handled by the Australian Human Rights commission but would oppose the most sweeping alterations to the race-hate laws.” I am not surprised. Ask yourself why he is opposing these very lukewarm changes. Got the answer? South Australians need to toss this guy out of office when he next comes up for re-election.
