Queenslanders who use the phrase “from the river to the sea” face up to two years’ imprisonment after the state became the first in Australia to outlaw the slogan frequently chanted by pro-Palestinian demonstrators.
“Globalise the intifada” has also been classified a “proscribed phrase”, which – if said in a way that could cause “menace, harassment or offence” – is prohibited under the new law passed by the Liberal National party government of David Crisafulli on Thursday.
