Remarks: A motion led by Victorian upper house leader David Davis has forced Labor MPs to “take a stand” on the barley tariffs imposed by the Chinese Communist Party. The Victorian opposition presented the upper house with a motion calling on MPs to back Australian farmers and oppose China’s 80 percent tariff on Australian barley imports.

Victorian Liberal MP David Davis said because Premier Daniel Andrews “wouldn’t utter a word against China or utter a word against the Chinese communist party and its imposition of these tariffs”.
Mr Davis said “when it came to it, the ministers balked and would not vote against it” although “they spoke against it in a half-hearted way”.
As a result, the motion was passed unanimously in the upper house.
Sky News host Peter Gleeson said it was a “clever movement” because it had forced the MPs to choose whether their loyalties lay with the Chinese and the Belt and Road project, or with Australian farmers.
