Julia Gillard (Lalor, Australian Labor Party, Deputy Leader of the Opposition) Share this | Hansard source

The opposition are opposed to the suspension motion and we will divide on it. If the government thought that this was a short route home, they should think again. What the government are trying to cover up here is apparent. They are trying to cover up the fact that this bill was brought to this parliament as part of a poll-driven cover-up. It is about polling they gave to Mark Textor, and they know it.
