The Australian newspaper revealed this week that Scenic Rim MP #JonKrause told a candidates’ forum that “we need to ensure that there are enough people in the parliament to be able to **#repeal** those laws or to make significant amendments”.

Guardian Australia can reveal that another MP, the retiring rightwinger #MarkRobinson, told a Christian podcast in August there “are no doubt corrections that will happen over time”.

Robinson said the LNP’s core issues – including youth crime, the cost of living, housing and health services – were “the big things the election will swing on” but in future changes could be made in line with the party’s broader platform.

“I see our values are very firmly anchored in **"family values"** ,” Robinson said.
