Labor has ‘entire crossbench support’ for Bridget McKenzie inquiry

Sky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell says Labor has “the agreement of the entire crossbench in supporting a Senate inquiry” into the Bridget McKenzie ‘sports rorts’ scandal. Mr Clennell said Labor was “pushing a set of terms of reference, negotiating them with the crossbench" because it wants to "look at the behavior of McKenzie, the behavior of her office, the role of the prime minister’s office in the affair and the role government ministers may have had in the affair". “Anthony Albanese will get up today and talk about a lack of leadership by the prime minister in taking so long to remove McKenzie,” he said. “Labor will also call on the prime minister not to take action to any public servants for telling the truth during this inquiry.” Image: Getty Via news.com.au — Australia’s #1 news site https://www.news.com.au
