This is the speech that somehow got me trending on Twitter and sent my Facebook reach figures through the roof. I was responding to a government motion on inclusion. I made the point that inclusion is supposed to be about everyone, but that this government often picks favourites for inclusion. Much of the speech was about the demonisation and vilification of the greyhound racing community here in Canberra because they don't fit into the Labor/Greens ideal world. I went on to talk about some other groups, members of which have come to me complaining that they feel left out of government policy. Some of these people have been white hetero males who were doing it tough, but suggested they don't have access to services, because they're 'so privileged' The ABC responded with a 'click bait' article online which got the left all fired up. Have a look at the entire speech.
