It is not tired; it is the greatest piece of theatre of the ridiculous. It is absurd to see you come in here and pretend that you are concerned about job security.

What is it that serves the job security of Australian people in the most significant way? It is being protected from indiscriminate and unfair dismissal in their employment.
