On Peter Dutton’s divisive messaging:
Suzie McKenzie writes: For the likes of Dutton to use the Palestinian people’s plight as a political cudgel and divisive tactic is beyond crass, and downright subversive to all we should hold near and dear.
I am a dual citizen born in the US, and I watch both US and Australian politics very closely. Dutton is a Trump-like, extreme-right wannabe. He would bring to Australian shores divisive and damaging us-vs-them politics, where “them” is anybody not white and Christian. I abhor the very thought of this ideology taking root in Australia any more than it already has.
