Anthony Albanese (Grayndler, Australian Labor Party, Leader of the House) Share this | Hansard source

In this chamber there is an obstacle to the rollout of funding for primary schools; to the rollout of the community infrastructure program; to the rollout of support for railway crossings; to the rollout of support for road spending—to the rollout of these projects. There is an obstacle and those opposite indicate through their interjections who it is. Those opposite are obsessed with their own internal processes—that is why during question time today they conducted a number of ballots. Relax, Malcolm, I understand it was not about the leadership. They spent the whole of question time filling in ballots on the back bench and on the front bench. They were not concerned with issues of concern to Australians, because they are simply out of touch. They and their tactics committee are also out of their depth.
