Greens feared ‘abuse’ from voters at Dunkley by-election, claims Michael Kroger

Former Victorian Liberal Party President Michael Kroger says Greens politicians didn't show up at the Dunkley by-election polls over fears they would be “abused” by voters. Mr Kroger’s come as the Greens have divided Aussies over their use of anti-Semitic tropes in parliament, resulting in NSW Premier Chris Minns issuing a warning to the political party about their language in relation to the Jewish community. “The Greens, they didn’t show up in a lot of polling booths, probably because they would have been abused by people," Mr Kroger said. “Elements of the Greens ... have become the ugly face of racism and anti-Jewish hatred in this country. “Their despicable performance in recent weeks against Jews in this country, I’ve never seen anything like it.”
