    What are you talking about?
    The Liberals are the 'Christian Party'.

    'There is no place in the Australian Parliament for a person who is elected on the basis of ANY religion.'

    Completely agree but how is a Muslim going to get elected purely on the basis of religion when they are such a small % of the electorate?

    A 'Muslim candidate' could get elected on the basis of their position on Palestine because they are people other than Muslims who disagree with what Israel is doing & believe the major political parties aren't doing enough to stop it.
    But that is a single issue not about Islamic faith.

    Dutton's comments are a dog whistle to the bigots of Australia, pretty much all he's got left.
