 Bev McARTHUR (Western Victoria) (10:06): I congratulate the Melbourne City Council and deputy lord mayor Roshena Campbell for ending the woke war on Christmas and restoring the Nativity scene in the CBD. Victorians hold many different religious views, and some of us have no religion at all, but for millions of people the Nativity is central to their celebrations. As the year draws to a close, I wish all Victorians a very merry Christmas.
