Prime Minister seeks to shift focus from citizenship dramas to Australia Day

As Labor continues to hammer the Turnbull Government over its deepening dual-citizenship drama, the Prime Minister has sought to shift the focus to a local council in Melbourne. Malcolm Turnbull has described Yarra Council's move to change the date of Australia Day celebrations as deeply disappointing and an attack on Australia Day. And the Government has announced the Melbourne local authority will be stripped of its power to hold any citizenship ceremonies as a result.
