The Senate has censured and condemned Fraser Anning for his "inflammatory and divisive comments" about last month's New Zealand Mosque Massacre in which 50 people were murdered.

The motion passed by the Senate by voice vote, censuring the Queensland senator "for his inflammatory and divisive comments seeking to attribute blame to victims of a horrific crime and to vilify people on the basis of religion, which do not reflect the opinions of the Australian Senate or the Australian people". 

An Australian self-proclaimed white nationalist live-streamed the attack on social media, clearly showing him shooting unarmed and defenseless women, children, and elderly people at a Christchurch Mosque.  But Fraser Anning, while condemning the attack, said the cause was Muslim immigration.  The statement provoked worldwide outrage.

"How pathetic," said Labor's Penny Wong.  "How shameful.  Shameful and pathetic attempt by a bloke who has never been elected to get attention by exploiting diversity as a fault line for political advantage," she continued.  "Well, this motion makes it clear he doesn't speak for us.  He doesn't speak for the Senate.  He doesn't speak for this nation."

Anning has not apologized for his comments, and he wasn't in the Senate chamber as the censure passed.
