You cannot sit over there and yell at me and accuse Labor of not reacting to this when it has been Labor that has come to government in this country with a decisive election victory that, I think, in large part recognises that the community does care and is looking for leadership on environmental issues, whether it is protecting our water resources or addressing the urgent problem of climate change. It has to be placed in the context of what happens if you do not act. What would happen if we had the attitude of the former government? We would all be in great difficulty if that were the case.
