    Brave woman. Thank you for standing up and bringing light again to the horror that is happening in Gaza. Regardless of reasons why, politics, religion, the killing of over 30,000 Palestinians and the daily struggle they face there is not ok and should not be accepted.

      Sorry but that's a silly comparison: indigenous issues are just that - 'indigenous' to Australia and our political systems' responsibility - but how can grandstanding in the senate in Australia do anything at all to 'help' the terrible situation way across the world in Gaza and the West Bank? Big gesture - no effect. It's all about the individual 'big gesture' today.

Politicians, Media and on are recorded on social media now - as to incite further violence upon other people. Zionist Israel is the test ground for ICJ. Its over in Colonialist Countries, time to mature.

    I believe that unfortunately the senator would have been better staying in the Labour Party and gradually working to build the sort of changes she says she is committed to from inside the large powerful existing machinery. She was voted in to represent WA and the Labor party and is paid her salary by the taxpayers - and now she decides individually to follow her own path. Perhaps she should resign from the senate.

      @@GoldenJet-bahaa She received a grand total of 1681 first preference votes - 0.01% of the vote in WA. She is only in the senate because she was 3rd place in the Labour list and Labour just got enough for a third senate seat. Proportional representation in the senate - remember? Her 'electorate' is WA - the state. Look up how the senate works in Australian politics. So ask yourself who is she representing now? 1681 people? A small section of the WA Labour Party?
