Brazen bias of the Coalition-elected Speaker of the Australian House of Representatives demonstrated and caught on camera.

Ldr. of Opposition gives a budget reply speech, gets standing ovation. Minister Pyne intervenes to cut short the applause with a hand direction to Ms. Bishop
to stand, forcing everyone to sit and be quiet.

More pathetic stuff from the Right in federal Australian politics......

This was shockingly under reported in the news.

I vehemently hate Christopher Pyne though.

While Victoria's lower house previous Speaker was clearly biased, I can't off the top of my head think of a federal Parliament
Speaker in Australian political history breaching the impartiality obligations.
