I will withdraw so I can proceed. Senator Hanson has said, 'I challenge anyone to tell me one thing that I've said that is racist.' Here I begin—there are a few. There are so many we could be here all day. She said, in her first speech, 'I believe we are in danger of being swamped by Asians.' In 1998, in a policy speech, she said that Aboriginality would no longer exist under her party's policies. In another statement she said:
We're bringing in people from South Africa at the moment. There's a huge amount coming into Australia, who have diseases; they've got AIDS …
If that is not racist, what is it?
