The Greek Community of Melbourne demands Senator Fraser Anning to retract his statement and apologise to all those who he offended

There is no place in Australian politics for statements such as those made in senator Fraser Anning’s maiden speech which in plain English seeks a return to the White Australia policy.

Comments regarding Muslim Australians are highly offensive and racist and must be withdrawn. Also, Senator Anning’s calling for a ‘final solution’ on immigration was appalling and an insult to the Jewish community. The Senator’s anti-Semitic and Islamophobic views are unacceptable, racist and bigoted.

Australia has benefited immensely from the contribution of migrants over the past century and we are all proud of our multicultural way of life.

The Greek Community of Melbourne demands that Senator Fraser Anning retracts his statement and apologise immediately to all those who he offended.
