Obvious vandalism is occuring and being serially reverted, claiming his constituency is in Israel and that he is an Israeli spy, with irrelevant references cited regarding local protests. Page might need to be protected. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Markbenjamin (talk • contribs) 02:25, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Footnote 26 does not support evidence given

Footnote 26 is given as evidence for Burns' relationship with Victorian state MP Georgie Purcell. However, the footnote leads to a page with Burns' first speech to Parliament in 2019, while he was still married (he refers to his presumably now former wife Zoe), and thus long before any relationship with Purcell 124.149.191.170 (talk) 11:37, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There didn't appear to be credible information cited on that so I have deleted that paragraph. It was also contradictory to his parliamentary profile. Qwerty123 (they/them) (talk) 21:52, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
