Australian Senate, last sitting of the year. No idea when the Social Media Ban debate is kicking off.

If anyone's keen, feel free to give a live run-down of anything interesting in this thread.

Most of the Coalition. All of Labor. None of the cross-bench.

Not a surprise that all of Labor voted yes, given their party policy around caucus solidarity. I'd be interested to see a list of people opposed to this bill behind closed doors.

I've really come to despise Labor's policy of not crossing the floor. I get their desire to show a united front, but it really makes it hard for regular folk to track how the party is shifting if we don't ever see who supports what on an individual level.
