Picture: Sky News Australia. “We are progressing through the parliament laws which will strengthen anti hate speech legislation,” he said. Noting there are important “nuances” that “really do matter” when it comes to the line between free speech and hate speech, Mr Marles said the government was consulting with communities on the issue.
“Part of being in a democracy is that absolutely people have freedom of speech and people are allowed to air their thoughts on what Australia should or should not be doing around global affairs. That's absolutely everyone's given right. Where it is a problem is when it crosses a line into hate speech,” Mr Sztrajt said.
