> 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
