What I have done in my speech thus far has been to demonstrate the failings of Labor, particularly in relation to this piece of legislation before the parliament. It is important for people to understand that this is yet another patch-up job by a government that just cannot get it right. I think it is completely reasonable, in drawing people's attention to the latest failings, this time in health, that we also draw their attention to Labor's other failings, because it gives people an understanding of the modus operandi of this government. They cannot get it right in the area of pink batts; they cannot give pink batts away for free. They cannot get the midwives legislation right.
