A TV presenter who called for a ban on Muslim migration to Australia has been widely mocked on social media.
Earlier this week, Sonia Kruger had told Today that after the Nice attack she would feel safer if the borders were closed to Muslims for a while.
She later said on Twitter she was concerned "as a mother" and that there should be open discussion of the issue.
The hashtag #asamother has since been trending in Australia, with many accusing her of racism.
"#asamother I'd like to think I could leave a war-torn country and settle my children safely, somewhere else, without judgement," said one tweet.
"#AsAMother I hope to never teach my children how to hate and fear what is different," said another.
But Ms Kruger has also found support, both from people who agree and those who say she has the right to her opinion.
Immigration should 'stop now'
Ms Kruger, who presents TV shows The Voice and Today Extra, had said onChannel Nine's Today on Monday: "I want to feel safe, as all of our citizens do when they go out to celebrate Australia Day, and I'd like to see freedom of speech."
