Leave refused.

 David SOUTHWICK (Caulfield) (09:42): I move, by leave:

Leave refused.

 Kathleen MATTHEWS-WARD (Broadmeadows) (09:42): I move, by leave:

Leave refused.

 Emma KEALY (Lowan) (09:42): I move, by leave:

 Tim READ (Brunswick) (09:43): I move, by leave:

That this house notes that far-right extremists are registering the Save the Environment Party and the Free Palestine party to funnel preferences to the far right and that this remains legal under Victoria’s group voting system; that almost 20,000 people have signed GetUp!’s petition to scrap the undemocratic group voting system; and that very little time remains in which this house can reverse that situation.

Leave refused.

That this house notes that when the Liberal Party was last in government it closed hospital beds, cut nurses and stripped funding from the health system Victorians rely on and notes that a Leader of the Opposition who refuses to rule out $40 billion in cuts has no credible answer for which wards will close and which health workers will lose their jobs.
