    So @SenPaterson which would you rate as your bigger screw-up, that smart-arse tweet about citizenship, or the ridiculous pro-discrimination bill you put up then abandoned after 5 minutes?

        Replying to @BernardKeane @noplaceforsheep @SenPaterson

        It was a stalking horse for conservatives to help them push through sweeping amendments to the Smith bill. Along the lines of "anything less than the Paterson bill has to be good".

        Except I don't think anyone had much patience for hard right bullshit right now. Any amendments will be laughed out of the senate.

        I think the numbers are there to nix any substantive amendments, but won't believe it until the job is done.

        I guess it depends on if a conscience vote let's MPs vote on the amendments as well as the final bill. If so, it's finished

        My understanding is that even votes on amendments will be conscience votes, so I'd say the amendments will be fairly minor. But, let's wait till 27 Nov and they start voting on them.

        Who benefits from such wet lettuce, doltish voices as @SenPaterson in parliaments? They don't even titillate their own minions.

        The conservatives chose @SenPaterson to throw under the bus so the Smith bill would get less scrutiny. It's a nice change to see them sacrifice a white male, progress?
