​Labor’s ‘insidious’ agenda attacked for threatening to ‘undermine’ Australia’s democracy

Shadow Communications Minister Sarah Henderson says claims Labor’s ‘Digital Duty of Care’ “undermines” Australia’s democracy. ​“All we know is that this government has got an insidious agenda to shut down any view with which it does not agree,” Ms Henderson told News24 host Peta Credlin. ​“That is very clear because the minister has given herself the broadest, unfettered powers to shut down any sort of category of harm as she sees fit without parliamentary oversight. ​“This is one of the worst things that I think we’ve ever seen come before the parliament in terms of undermining our democracy. ​“The attack on news media is shocking. ​“We will fight this every step of the way, and we are asking all Australians to get behind our campaign.”
