    I see the ol' "right to free speech = right to be listened to" fallacy is getting a good work out.

        Spot on. But don't forget the responsibility to govern for all is not absolved by a right to block ones ears. Refer to #Brexit

        True! But these Pollies are walking out while on the job are they not? Dereliction of duty??

        @BromleyMatthew No, walking out against racist rubbish like Hanson's speech is precisely what we vote for them to do.

        We? Some see parliament as a forum for debate. Walk out= ignoring the issues that some people vote to address.

        That was a speech. Not a debate. Get your thoughts in order. They have 6 years to debate, so stop crying.

        Yet in order to debate and refute the arguments they need to know what they are. That requires listening!

        It's 2016 - there are cameras and transcripts will follow, and yet you think they should sit down and listen?

        Come up with a better argument, one that isn't a flimsy attempt to criticize the @Greens instead of #Hanson.

        No- one is entitled to an audience. If you think it's not worth listening to you don't have to listen to it. Simple.

        But they are paid senators. Maybe their job is to listen to all those speeches? Either way it's not a free speech issue.

        Let's see them repeat that line if Lee Rhiannon ever goes federal.
