Peter Dutton said<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

“I\u2019m not a racist, and I\u2019m not going to be standing here as a punching bag for people like Zali Steggall. I actually think, ironically, that them calling out people unnecessarily and unrealistically and unjustly as racists, they\u2019re actually fuelling tensions.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n

“The left can throw all sorts of tags at Myself but I refuse to shy away from speaking out against the Albanese government\u2019s immigration policies.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

It is not acceptable to call someone a racist because they are concerned about the security of the country and we rightly should be. Australia is accepting significant numbers of people from Gaza at the same time other countries are being more cautious. We should be cautious also and be prepared to ask the hard questions.<\/p>\n\n\n
