Wayne Swan

Wayne Swan Lilley, Australian Labor Party, Treasurer

Well, I do know that you need a distraction because there has been a lot of action happening today. I would just like to quote from the Australian online today:

… the offending paragraphs of background were provided for her speech from the leader’s office.

Is that true? Who provided it? It says provided ‘from the leader’s office’. It continues:

Ms Bishop was understood to be “ropeable” about the error but willing to take the public flak rather than blame others.

The blame game is everywhere on that side of the House today. She has been caught out. She has got no excuse for it.
