Parliament returns with coal mine, citizenship and economy dominating

While a Stop Adani protest and church service heralded the start of parliament for 2018, it was soon back to same thorny issues that gripped the nation last year. Dual citizenship for parliamentarians and the economy loomed large, along with foreign interference laws and plans for a new corruption watchdog.
