Senator Fraser Anning’s maiden speech to Parliament called for a plebiscite to change immigration policy to reflect the “historic European-Christian composition of Australian society.”

The Katter’s Australian party member used the term “final solution” to say “ethnocultural diversity ... has been allowed to rise to dangerous levels” and suggested the ban of Muslim immigration.

Greens leader Richard Di Natale says "Referring to immigrants, particularly Muslim immigrants, with the same language that the Nazis used to discuss the extermination of Europe's Jews during the Holocaust is vile, racist, bigoted, and has no place in our society, let alone our Parliament," and demanded an apology from the new rep.
