Melbourne Cup debut for counter-terrorism bill.

Melbourne Cup debut for counter-terrorism bill. :

"The Federal Government will introduce its proposed counter-terrorism legislation to Parliament on Melbourne Cup Day, the Opposition says."

If they are going to introduce and try and debate the bill on Melbourne Cup Day, I think they may well find they are being totally unconstitutional. It's Melbourne Cup Day. It's taken me years to accept the nation stops for a horse race, but it does. This is Australia and we are proud of it. So...try and undermine us why don't you? Honestly, where are your priorities, not to mention your humanity. The bill can be introduced and debated on another day. You know that. You neither take us, your nation nor your bills seriously. Says a lot actually, the timing, doesn't it? A real people party.
