‘Crossed the line’: Greens have ‘stoked the flames of division’ in Australia

Shadow Home Affairs and Cyber Security Minister James Paterson says the Greens Party have “crossed the line” after they “stoked the flames of division” within the Australian community. “Encouraged some of the protests that we’ve seen in the community whether it’s on university campuses or outside electorate offices,” Mr Paterson told Sky News Australia. “I think that has been dangerous and unprincipled - I think we need to draw a very bright line between fair and legitimate political debate and disagreement on policy issues, and weaponising a foreign conflict for dividing our community which I think the Greens have strayed into from time to time.”
