My question is to the Acting Prime Minister. I refer the Acting Prime Minister to the statement by the member for Longman in this House that ‘legitimate retribution’ could be taken against members of parliament that vote against the government and:

If … revenue measures are blocked, … infrastructure projects in the opposition electorates ought to be blocked …

Does the Acting Prime Minister agree with the member for Longman that this ‘would be a great way to handle the distribution of taxpayers’ money’?
