Labor frontbencher Tony Burke has launched an attack on the Speaker of the House of Representatives, accusing Bronwyn Bishop of being a biased umpire and of allowing a ''childish prank'' by Education Minister Christopher Pyne.
While the Speaker is meant to act as an independent umpire, forgoing party allegiances, Labor has from the outset accused Ms Bishop of flouting this rule and criticised her for continuing to attend Coalition party room meetings.
