You’d be hard pressed to find a more destructive illustration of Lefty politics obsessing over race ahead of class than the hypocritical Greens.
Yesterday, Fake Green, Fake Left, Sarah Hanson-Young took to Twitter to express her outrage that Labor’s “Employ Australians First” ad contained only one non-white face:
Perhaps before opening her mouth, Ms Hanson-Young should take a look at her own party, where non-white faces are conspicuously absent within federal parliament:
Are under-represented at the state level:
And are heavily under-represented at the candidate level:
Apparently it’s only alright to be green so long you’re pink and white.
Meanwhile, former Labor leader, Mark Latham, will officially join the Liberal Democrats Party (LDP), sighting concerns (shared by MB) that the ‘left’ has embraced identity politics over substance. From The ABC:
“I support 80-90 per cent of the Liberal Democrats platform, pretty good for someone with strong views formed over a long period of time,” Mr Latham said.
“So I have joined up and want to play a role in fighting for our national values, based on personal freedom and responsibility.”
He said the “party of freedom” allowed room for “dissent and diversity of opinion”, something he said contrasted greatly to the values of his former party.
“Shorten Labor is only interested in diversity of skin colour, gender and sexuality — Safe Schools BS,” Mr Latham wrote.
Labor has hit back hard, with its representative for the Chinese Communist Party, Sam Dastyari, labeling Latham a “racist, Islamophobic, misogynist homophobe”. From The Australian:
Former Labor leader Mark Latham has been slapped with a life ban by his former NSW branch…
Mr Latham… was yesterday blasted by members of his former party including NSW Labor senator Sam Dastyari, who labelled him a “racist, Islamophobic, misogynist homophobe”…
Senator Dastyari told The Australian that Mr Latham “walked the streets of Sydney on a taxpayer funded pension yelling at migrants with a microphone”.
“Who would have thought that David Leyonhjelm would be the sensible centre of the Liberal Democrats,” he said…
Bill Shorten backed the NSW motion…
Only the Fake Left has so much hate.
