Coalition backs multiculturalism, criticises Labor for undermining Australian values

Shadow Energy Minister Dan Tehan emphasised the Coalition’s support for multiculturalism, criticising Labor for failing to uphold those principles. “Obviously we support multiculturalism, but with Australian values,” Mr Tehan told Sky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell. “The problem we have is with the Labor Party in that they are not pursuing those Australian values within multiculturalism, and that's what we want to see as a coalition. “We are seeing that, whether it be the antisemitism royal commission, we have seen it in those marches that were continually happening … in Melbourne. “What we want to see is those values where we all come together and understand that Australia is the greatest nation on earth."
