L-NP wants to prioritize Religious Discrimination having lost the referendum on Marriage Equality. They see the utmost urgency in policing freedom of speech online because they regard any negative murmur or commentary on their performance as “online abuse”. These Free Speech Advocates feel the need to close down any “leaks” not in their control. Then they want to introduce laws that entitle their Ministers to sue for defamation at taxpayer expense and if sued defend themselves at ours as well. To do what Peter Dutton did at absolutely “no cost”.  Forget ICAC because the LNP has lowered us on the International Corruption Index by 50%. So why on earth would a Morrison Government want an ICAC or anyone investigating or judging them?

Senator Cash said the first priority of the Prime Minister was to ensure passage of the Religious Discrimination Act and to remove the right of faith-based educational institutions to expel gay students under section 38(3) of the Sex Discrimination Act. The next priority was to amend privacy laws to help combat online abuse.
