Greens MP

The Greens MP, representing the Greens party, is currently newsworthy for their involvement in two separate debates. Firstly, they have criticized Queensland's laws regarding the use of the phrase "from the river to the sea" during pro-Palestinian protests, comparing the police response to that of an authoritarian state reminiscent of the Bjelke-Petersen era. The MP argues that arresting protesters for using this phrase is an overreach of power. Secondly, following the Bondi massacre, the Greens MP is advocating for the NSW government to remove recreational hunting as a valid reason for firearm ownership. They highlight the high number of guns in NSW and urge for stricter gun control measures, arguing that the Bondi shooting underscores the need to re-evaluate existing firearm regulations. Their actions reflect the Greens party's stance on civil liberties and gun control, making them a significant voice in these ongoing discussions.
