I rise on the grievance debate this afternoon to speak about recent media reports that have shocked me—in fact, they have appalled me and many of my constituents in my electorate of Maranoa. These are hardworking Australians, decent people. The issue I want to talk about is the Australian flag.

An Australia wide socialist youth group called Resistance has developed a flag-burning kit that is to be sold during university orientation weeks across Australia. These kits include an Australian flag, matches and material to assist in the burning of the flag. They are going to be sold for $5.
