Pietro and Floyd look at the recent movements in Australian Parliament—namely the MAD (Misinformation and Disinformation) Bill failing this past week after independent Senators Lambie, Pocock, and Payman all announced they would vote against it. The Libertarian Party was instrumental in mobilising community members contacting the Senators’ offices and pleading with them to vote against it.

Unfortunately, while this encroachment on free speech seems to be momentarily forestalled, the Social Media Ban for all kids under 16 will pass next week with bipartisan Labor and Liberal support, and Albanese and Dutton arguing over who supports it more.

Pietro and Floyd also take a look at the recent ‘haka’ demonstration in Parliament by the Te Maori party in response to David Seymour from the Libertarian party (ACT) over there attempting to remove some of the enshrined privileges the indigenous have been enjoying there at the expense of the taxpayer.
