DAVID VAN GEND: We have told the Labor Party that this is something for which family groups will go to the barricades. This is an assault on the deepest relationship between a mother and child. It is to trample on the rights of a child to have at least the chance of a mum and a dad in its life and not just have one bloke or two blokes or a single woman as its parents.
And so on this we will be targeting every marginal seat in Queensland at the next state election which voted for this hideous bill.
