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 motion is that standing orders be suspended. And this is why standing orders should not be suspended: this parliament should not have its activities taken over because of their internal problems. Go away and sort it out. Have the courage to challenge and sort out your leadership difficulties. You are already proclaiming in your local paper that you are going to sort it out, but it is a question of when. That is what it is about. Here we have a political party having a prize for submitting a suggestion for what the name of the political party will be!
