That is actually how democracy works. The government introduced a bill that was satisfactory to the majority of MPs, and it passed.
Shattered that we could not defeat Labor’s extreme State of Emergency laws last night.
Labor got the numbers (just, 20-19) after doing secret deals with the Greens and two other cross benchers.
We should never forget this outrageous affront to our democracy.

OPINION: It can make for uncomfortable viewing as the Premier switches from the jovial, matey tone he reserves for male journalists to the barely concealed disdain he appears to have for the contingent of women who’ve challenged him.
