The Greens oppose this amendment, and the Greens also oppose the referral of the Commission of Inquiry into Antisemitism at Australian Universities Bill 2024 (No. 2) to an inquiry. The Liberal Party that has embraced racism as a political strategy is now suddenly interested in tackling racism. Well, excuse me for being cynical, but the Greens are not going to fall for this disingenuous inquiry or a disingenuous bill. All you want to do is weaponise antisemitism to attack those who are standing up against Israel's genocide in Gaza and want justice for Palestine.
