Title
Motions — Prime Minister- Motions - Prime Minister - Stop MP Tony Burke from speaking
Description
<p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p><p>Is the motion moved by the Leader of the Opposition seconded? The Manager of Opposition Business?</p> <p class="speaker">Tony Burke</p>- The majority voted in favour of a motion to stop Watson MP [Tony Burke](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/representatives/watson/tony_burke) from speaking, which means he can no longer contribute to this debate. Motions like these are known as *gagging motions*.
<p>Seconded! When he opens his mouth, it's opposite day—opposite, every single time!</p> <p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p><p>The Manager of Opposition Business will resume his seat. The Leader of the House has the call.</p> <p class="speaker">Christian Porter</p><p>I move:</p><p class="italic">That the member be no longer heard.</p> <p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p><p>The question is that the Manager of Opposition Business be no further heard. Members must remain in their seats unless they are changing their votes or did not vote in the previous division, in which case they must report to the tellers.</p>
