What a momentous 70 years it’s been, particularly with the Australia- Israel relationship.

It is an honour for me to be able to stand up here and make my contribution in this formal recognition of the 70th anniversary of the diplomatic relationship established between Australia and the State of Israel.

SpeechesBy lkinsella

I move this motion – but the text is the work of many. I want to acknowledge that the conflict between Israel and Palestine is an issue of great importance to many in our Party. It is of great importance because Labor is a friend of Israel. I am a friend of Israel. It is…

SpeechesBy lkinsella

As Penny said, this resolution is the product of many more people than Penny and myself.

On behalf of the opposition, I rise to support this condolence motion, to express Labor’s deep sadness at the passing of Shimon Peres, and to join with the government in expressing, as Senator Brandis has, our sadness at his passing.
