Question Time LIVE updates: Angus Taylor’s arrives for first question time as Liberal leader

Another sitting week is upon us, and Opposition Leader Angus Taylor has stood up at a doorstop interview in Parliament House.

He was spruiking his party’s attempt to criminalise NGOs and individuals helping repatriate Australian citizens with terror links, and clashed with a reporter over the details of his plan.

“We must shut the door to ISIS sympathisers,” Taylor said before snapping at a journalist who asked why other countries should be responsible for the Australian citizens if their own government refused to take responsibility for them.

“[Are you] an activist or a journalist, you need to make up your mind,” Taylor said.

Taylor also refused to distinguish between the Australian women who left for Syria to support the so-called caliphate, and the 23 children in the cohort seeking repatriation, despite repeated questions from reporters.

“This is a group who have gone to the Middle East to support ISIS. There is no ambiguity,” he said.
