Summarize this content to 2000 words in 6 paragraphs Queensland senator James McGrath has again been involved in an argument over antisemitism, causing another Senate estimates hearing to be briefly suspended.On Monday, Foreign Minister Penny Wong accused McGrath of weaponising antisemitism in a rowdy parliamentary hearing that eventually was shut down as opposition MPs questioned the government over the issue.Senator James McGrath in the Senate estimates hearing on Tuesday.Credit: Alex EllinghausenOn Tuesday, Greens senator Barbara Pocock alleged that McGrath spoke over the top of women on the Senate’s finance and public administration committee.“I will not sit here as a bystander and watch you do that, Senator McGrath, without calling you out for it,” Pocock told him on Tuesday afternoon.“It is inappropriate. And further, you have referred to me as antisemitic.”Senator Barbara Pocock speaks at federal parliament earlier on Tuesday.Credit: Alex EllinghausenMcGrath then spoke over the top of Pocock as he rejected her claim.But the Greens senator continued: “I will complete my words, thank you. I will say what I need to say. I am the only Greens senator in this room, and you have referred to me and my party as antisemitic. I ask you to withdraw. It is a lie. It is not true, and I insist that you withdraw it.”LoadingMcGrath responded: “With due respect, Senator Pocock, I did not say that you personally were antisemitic or racist. Your party is an antisemitic, racist party and I will not withdraw that.”The committee chair asked again for McGrath to withdraw, but he refused.The session was then briefly suspended.
