And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Greens update: Parliamentary right in NSW is now openly defying the membership's decision making and boycotting the party, instead crying to RDN and the federal right to impose top-down MP leadership control. You heard it here first. Now don't go leaking it to the arsetrayan

What was the decision made?

Membership will have 2/3rds the vote in... something and the MPs will have 1/3rd. I'm not sure of the specifics, but I'm told it's regarding MP activities and party room priorities/directions.

Good thing this has repeatedly worked for other parties and not ended up with institutionalisation of policy and direction and alienation of the membership....

The foreign affairs minister, Julie Bishop, has refused to sack Yassmin Abdel-Magied from the Council for Australian-Arab Relations – resisting calls from government conservatives, including Peter Dutton, following the controversy about Abdel-Magied’s Anzac Day comments.

So help me god, Julie "Litigate until they die" Bishop is once again the least reprehensible person in the room for the LNP.

Actually that's probably not fair to Pyne. He isn't nearly as heinous as some of the others.

Also the question for entry would have to be "Where does Cartoon poo poo" or "What movie franchise does Milky have very strong opinions about" or "What is taco?"

At a recent event Latham was telling photographers that they were only there to take bad pictures of him. I think they took it as a challenge.
