More than 800,000 sign petition to have Anning removed from parliament

“Senator Fraser Anning has no place in the government of our democratic and multicultural country. We request that he be expelled from his position as senator, and investigated by law enforcement agencies for supporting right wing terrorism.”“It shows that Australians don't tolerate extreme hate speech and the attitude that Senator Anning has displayed,” she said.Dr Ahmad, 39, is a staff specialist neurologist and director of physician training at Royal North Shore Hospital.

“It’s to make clear that this kind of hate speech won’t be accepted by the community or the country as a whole, that there are repercussions for this behaviour," she said. “Petitioning has become a routine way to express a point of view and have a voice which people don’t feel they have any more,” she said.shows 75 per cent of signatories have only ever signed one petition and the remainder tend to sign only in the area they care about.

JennaPrice The practice of petitions creating a necessity for politicians to go back to the polls is something worth considering in Aus politics

news_australian JennaPrice You’ve all wasted your time. Petitions don’t work in these cases.

JennaPrice The fact is that the guy who “egged” him was well out of line. The style of response from Anning and his “heavyweight thugs” was even more out of line. There is “reasonable” restraint pending arrival of police and “outright thuggery” which this was. Dump him at election time!!!

news_australian JennaPrice Cutie

JennaPrice Virtue signalling par excellence

JennaPrice It would be unAustralian to sign such a petition. He is welcome to say what he thinks. We should NOT be shutting down free speech just because we don't like what somebody says.

JennaPrice . ScottMorrisonMP billshortenmp One million. 1,000,000. And the person that kicked EggBoyForPM should come forward and explain that action.

JennaPrice How he became a senator I don’t understand. He is not fit to be a leader. Where can I access this petition? removeanning unfitanning 🤮 I feel sick in the stomach seeing his face

JennaPrice Islamists murdered 20 Christians, injured more than 100 in Phillipines church on January 28. Where was the outrage? Where were the petitions? Why is mass murder of Christians by Muslims & dictators worldwide treated so banally by liberals?

JennaPrice Should be banned in politics!! You don’t comment and blame other country’s rule. They lost there lives , love ones, innocent being senseless killing. Shame on you! Racism = IGNORANCE.

JennaPrice Should be banned for politics!! You don’t comment and blame other country’s rule. They lost there lives , love ones, innocent being senseless killing. Shame on you! Racism = IGNORANCE.

JennaPrice If this works i say do the same with Richard di natalie and the Greens. Calling Australians invaders and escalating violence and divison on purpose every Australia day.

BrausHunter JennaPrice

pepeMcGee JennaPrice Need to go beyond 1 million asap!

JennaPrice I want to know where’s his 18 supporters are? Come out come out wherever you are....

JennaPrice I think people in this moment need to focus on what is important. Going after someone who speaks words will achieve nothing. Sticks and stones

JennaPrice Great to see 800000 don’t understand the constitution

JennaPrice The next question is why can’t a sitting member of parliament be removed for behaviour that damages the governments image? If we had an MP shouting “I like to fuck goats”people would be screaming blue murder. Not everyone is worthy to serve

JennaPrice The Federal politicians as much as they disagree with Senator Anning, will not remove him over the issue of free speech. They know that to do so, would bend to the far left & it’s radical socialist agenda. More importantly, to do so would put their own positions at future risk.

JennaPrice That’s, 800,000 Communist Australians who don’t deserve to live in a Democracy where Free Speech , means free speech. That’s, 800,000 so called “ do gooders “ who cannot handle the truth. Interview, “hero “ egg boy when he’s 30, see where he’s at in life.

JennaPrice Christchurch massacre. One Nation's love child, Fraser Anning's final solution.

JennaPrice They may as well print all those signatures on a bunch of paper and wipe their asses with it, for what it's worth.

JennaPrice Change the stupid law that got him placed there.

JennaPrice Australia let ScottMorrisonMP auspol know you agree with Dr Ahmad; we need urgent provision for the exclusion of parliamentarians who incite or encourage extremism. ChristchurchTerrorAttack

JennaPrice Awe 800,000 hurt feelings

JennaPrice Good riddance

JennaPrice 👍🏻 Fraser

JennaPrice Only his electorate can remove him at the next election. He has been reprimanded by the PM. Anning can say whatever he likes, though he cannot stop other people from speaking or from ignoring him.

JennaPrice Shutting down free speech is not the answer to most Australians fear of becoming minorities in their home country. Shame on you all.

JennaPrice So now people want to stop others participating in society if we dont like their views. The hypocrisy is just unreal.

JennaPrice MPs are representatives of the people of Australia. To have an MP who represents so few in our community is an aberration. Now is the time to change the constitution. It was written for an Australia that no longer exists. It should be updated to reflect current Australia

JennaPrice and this is why we have elections for govt and not petitions he might be voted in by more of his own constituents than an online poll anybody can click onto I mean anybody in the world and anybody as many times as that like means nothing

JennaPrice Great news - we do not need mindless fools trying to politicise tragedies like this - so can we now join in sanctioning 'GetUp', who flagrantly did the same thing ... Thank you.

JennaPrice More than 24 million didn't, get some perspective..please, is this your idea of diversity at work. Words were clumsy but the idiot throwing eggs was worse and you people want to give these people the vote! Duh.

JennaPrice If you disagree just ignore him. Don’t give him oxygen.

JennaPrice hahaha what he said was not even that bad. It is a fact.

JennaPrice Some common questions people are raising. No, we are not idiots thinking we can do a petition and get him out, this petition reflects people's views in response to Fraser Anning's comments. If anything, this response from people shows, he has no moral high-ground.

JennaPrice While his comments may be undesirable, I think they have to vote him out, not petition him out; but then when did this bankrupt rag ever let democracy get in the way.

JennaPrice In other words over 800,000 people waste their time. Online petitions are not how we choose our parliament.

JennaPrice Good. 10 days, I have spent at Australia. Visited many places as an Indian Tourist on 2018. Lovely country with unity in diversity. Beautiful country.Freely moved at Australia.

JennaPrice When is free speech free speech?

JennaPrice Are people that ignorant that they think they can petition a sitting member out of office.

JennaPrice

JennaPrice Congratulations to Peter Dutton. He now is only the second most hated man in Australia after Fraser Anning's racially charged rhetorical rant.

JennaPrice Even Kate Ahmad knows this petition is a waste of time. I wonder if she is aware that petitioning for people to be booted from parliament undermines the very democratic system she wants to protect? You want him out. Vote him out. It's as simple as that.

JennaPrice concentrate on Queensland electors to ensure he can't be elected

JennaPrice Clean out your desk Anning!

JennaPrice So, you want to overthrow democracy, go live in Nth Korea, every last one of the 8000,000 who signed the petition.

JennaPrice Yep - hopefully that is the final straw for this guy - not qualified to even deliver a deplorable message succinctly. noneedforthis

JennaPrice Futile.. the constitution doesn’t allow for this unless if specific conditions are met. Anning does not meet these conditions yet.

JennaPrice Truth is hurting the precious few

JennaPrice I Disapprove of What You Say, But I Will Defend to the Death Your Right to Say It: Voltaire

JennaPrice I think that's up to his constituents

JennaPrice As much as hate him, the petition means nothing . The way he got into parliament exposes how faulty our election procedures are.

JennaPrice . What if he gets voted back in?

And he should be, frankly, ashamed of himself' He hit the lad twice, then his out of control admirers nearly choked him, luckily he had the sense to stay still.

PM says Fraser Anning must face 'full force of law' for 'appalling' anti-Muslim commentsPrime Minister Scott Morrison says there should be legal consequences for independent senator Fraser Anning blaming the Islamic community for a mosque shooting. Well maybe you should actually do something about it? I don’t want to hear from Mr.Morrison. I don’t want to watch him deflect this onto Anning, who is but a minor irritant in a flaming fire that the LNP and OneNation have created. Don’t deliver your insincere wisdom from the pulpit of righteousness- I just don’t want to hear it. Garbage. Freedom of speech shouldn’t be denied no matter how awful his opinions are. It’s exposed him for the idiot he is, now the whole country knows.
