Angry Liberals are blaming Scott Morrison for putting them through a “shambles” in Parliament after he shelved a draft law on religious freedom to avoid a Senate defeat amid a new leak from federal cabinet | CroweDM

to Parliament in a draft bill and that this could help persuade some MPs to also support the government on religious discrimination.Cabinet ministers rejected this approach, which was backed by Finance Minister Simon Birmingham, out of concern that Parliament would amend the Commonwealth integrity commission bill in ways the government could not accept.

With Parliament limited to a single week of sittings before the federal budget due on March 29 and with the election campaign expected to start soon afterwards, Liberals and Nationals said the changes to sex discrimination and religious discrimination laws would be left in limbo. Mr Morrison insisted the draft Religious Discrimination Act should pass in its original form to ensure people of faith had the freedom to express their views, setting up an election contest with rival claims from the major parties to ethnic communities and others shaped by religious belief.

The rare cross-party alliance in the lower house replaced the government plan for the Sex Discrimination Act with a broader change that also protected transgender students, although the amendment stopped short of banning schools from sacking teachers because of their sexual identity.

CroweDM Apparently the tax exempt Christian ponzi scheme mob are not happy.

CroweDM It's disgusting that Morrison puts his own agenda to parliament. The public are sick of a bible basher in power that lets his religion rule common sense.

CroweDM This legislation tries to silence criticism of religions when they do and say stupid stuff. Taking away our freedom of speech and protecting the various religions right to hate and discriminate and perpetuate stupid dogma that we now can’t criticise… pathetic !!!

CroweDM Trying to protect his church’s former leader if you ask me. Birds of a feather…

CroweDM Strange for an endless self promoter, who literally does nothing else except promote his 'brand' at every opportunity. Were they expecting Morrison to actually do some work or make an effort on something other than himself? The laziest PM in Australian History. Just useless!

CroweDM God is on our side. Thank you God.
