      Those who don’t experience racism find it easy to say there’s no need for public efforts to combat it. Unfortunately racism does harm to many people. In 2017, 20% of Australians say they experienced discrimination during the past 12 months http://scanlonfoundation.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/ScanlonFoundation_MappingSocialCohesion_2017.pdf …

      I wasn’t called to #Estimates today but had I been there I would have reassured senators that you can have a Race Discrimination Commissioner AND Johnathan Thurston https://www.sbs.com.au/news/over-50-apply-to-be-new-race-commissioner …pic.twitter.com/9vGMLuDXkh

          Can also guarantee JT would have despised being used in an argument of denial to racism's existence by Senator Mac.

          Right there we can see that not only is McDonald a pompous buffoon, he also has no right to represent Qld residents when he is so ignorant of basic life facts. North Queensland is heavily racist despite the anomalies of Thurston and a few others.
