News bulletin of the day


An angry protester has shouted at federal deputy Labor leader Tanya Plibersek, before pushing Victorian MP Martin Foley at an event in Melbourne.

The man, wearing a blue t-shirt and cap, accused Labor of stealing franking dividends and destroying marriage and the church, ahead of a news conference outside the Victorian Pride Centre in St Kilda.

 Mr Foley, who was holding the man's arm and seemed to be attempting to lead him away, was pushed three times before the protester walked off.

 Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews says he is confident Mr Foley handled the matter appropriately.
