After a marathon all-night debate, five Liberals crossed the floor in the early hours of Thursday morning, exposing deep differences within the government. It was a divide which ultimately sank Scott Morrison's hopes of legislating a Religious Discrimination Bill in this parliamentary term.
Both sides of politics want a new law to prevent discrimination against people of faith, but there are unresolved differences over how to do this while protecting gay and transgender rights. David Speers interviews Shadow Home Affairs Minister Kristina Keneally about Labor's oscillating position on the controversial bill, accusations that China favours her party, and NSW by-election results.
