House debates Rudd Government

Suspension of Standing and Sessional Orders

Thursday, 13 March 2008 House of Representatives

Anthony Albanese

Anthony Albanese Grayndler, Australian Labor Party, Leader of the House

3:39 pm

The only reason this suspension has been moved is relevance deprivation syndrome of the person who has moved it, because he did not get enough questions this week. That is what it is about—it is about the leadership of the Liberal Party. We have a plan here, exposed by Senator Barnaby Joyce, for a new name for the amalgamated Liberal and National parties. The Leader of the Opposition, not being satisfied with being a member of two parties in the past—ours and theirs—now wants to form a third party so he can join that as well.
