Rank-and-file NSW Labor members Mark Powell and Hassan Hijazi were forcefully removed from NSW Labor Conference for peacefully holding a Palestinian flag as Chris Minns took the stage.
NSW Labor Conference should be a place where rank-and-file members can express their views, debate ideas, and hold elected representatives to account. The use of force against peaceful members undermines those principles and the right to peaceful protest.
Whatever your political views, whatever your faction; this behaviour should concern us all. Join us in calling for Chris Minns to apologise and share this petition.
