...
His only buffer from the Labor comrades was Independent MP Rob Oakeshott. That's if you don't count the man sitting directly in front of him, often ribbed as the government's chief - albeit closeted - climate sceptic, Resources Minister Martin Ferguson.

Just one other Liberal could not bring himself conspicuously to vote against the bill that was party policy only last December. The moderate lion Petro Georgiou abstained as it passed the lower house, 79 votes to 57.
