More than 50 people have applied to be Australia's next race discrimination commissioner - a role some conservative politicians and pundits want to be scrapped.

"I might live in a bubble perhaps, but I find it very difficult to find any but very rare cases of racism in Australia," Queensland LNP senator Ian Macdonald tells senior bureaucrats during #estimates.pic.twitter.com/ZbF6Nn1sX1
MacDonald: "I mean in this building we have two senior ministers who ... are clearly not white Australian male. In my own society … the greatest hero, in fact the king of Queensland, is Johnathan Thurston." #estimates
Senator Macdonald suggests an advertising campaign titled "Racism: It Stops With Me" is racist against white men.
"It's hard to see how it promotes racial cohesion in an Australia which as far as I'm as aware there is very, very, very little actual racism around." #estimates
Looks like @timsout caught wind of our @AAPNewswire yarn on the need for a race discrimination commissioner...
