Who determines what is extremist and what is small? It’s not like the dominant parties dropped from the sky with their existing “bigness”. They too started out as small parties.
- bedobi 5y ago> Who determines what is extremist we're not talking about some ambiguous grey zone stuff here * proposed a drastic reduction in immigration with particular reference to immigrants from Asia. * stated that African immigrants were bringing diseases into Australia and were of "no benefit to this country whatsoever" * called for a ban on Muslim immigration to Australia * announced policies including installing CCTV cameras in all existing mosques * stated "all terrorist attacks in this country have been by Muslims" it's safe to call the above extremist and xenophobic
