My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Brandis. In addition to at least 16 occasions on which the Prime Minister ruled out his government amending laws preventing hate speech, former Prime Minister Tony Abbott's chief of staff, Peta Credlin, said yesterday: 'The most vociferous person in the coalition against changes to 18C was Malcolm Turnbull.' Minister, when did the Prime Minister decide to stop being a pest to those seeking to amend section 18C and instead join them?
