On National Flag Day, Senator Malcolm Roberts backed One Nation’s petition — now with more than 50,000 signatures — calling to outlaw the burning or desecration of the Australian flag. He said the flag embodies the spirit, unity, and pride of the nation, and when it is burnt, “they burn every Australian.” Senator Roberts, alongside Senator Pauline Hanson and Senator Tyrone Whitten, joined the March for Australia, saying Australians are tired of division and mass migration policies that weaken national unity. He urged the government to put Australians first, defend national symbols, and restore the spirit of the country.
