Labor is trying to land one of its toughest reforms – an overhaul of Australia’s environmental laws. 

Environment Minister Murray Watt says he wants to speed up housing and energy project developments, make it clear where construction can and can’t go ahead, and create a federal environment watchdog.

So what will that mean for the environment?

Today, contributing editor at The New Daily, Amy Remeikis – on Labor’s wheeling and dealing – and the Coalition’s continued identity crisis.
