“The fact that Mr Abbott continues to support Bernardi as a Liberal Senator for South Australia means that he continues to tolerate these extreme, right wing views within his party.”

The petition that Mr Bernardi cited as proof that his views had been justified hosted at change.org was submitted by the Polyamory Action Group and contains just 43 signatures.
