After the tension created during the demonstrations in favor of transgender in Melbourne, between protesters and neo-Nazis, the state government through Victoria's Justice Minister Jacqueline Simes, said that a ban on the public display of the Nazi swastika would be discussed.
In fact, the minister of justice committed to promote the new legislation at an intensive pace, even though, as she estimates, it may take a period of months for its implementation.
On the weekend of March 18 and 19, in Melbourne, a group of about thirty people with Nazi symbols and the Nazi salute stood in front of the Parliament of Victoria, in order to support the view that transgender people have no rights.
The authorities made arrests.
As State Premier Daniel Andrews said: "I wish it didn't need to be said, but it's clear that it needs to be: Nazis are not welcome here. Not on the steps of parliament, not anywhere... Their satanic ideology wants to turn minorities into scapegoats - and it has no place here. And those who side with them have no place here either."
In the political background, Liberal MP Moira Diming, who took part in the demonstration, will be removed from the party's caucus, party leader John Pesutto said.
