Religious Freedom Discrimination Bill – how worried are we?

Government & Organisations, National, Religion & Spirituality, Society & Culture

Things take a serious turn on from the usual fun of MAD Wednesday as we dive into the Religious Discrimination Bill.

With Prime Minister Scott Morrison’s decision to delay the introduction of the Bill, does this allow time for further consultation with our communities?

Dean spoke to Arman Hosie from the national LGBTIQ+ organisation Equality Australia, who is in Canberra speaking to politicians and taking the temperature of things over there.

How concerned should we be?

Soon after this interview went to air, details of the Bill and articles came to light that caused greater concern for our communities that our rights may be stripped away, so how do we get balance?

Dean dives in.
