I have to compliment the honourable member on that rather elaborate way he has tried to make this question relevant to my portfolio. But of course every single member of the government supported every element in the budget—of course. We are a united government. The Labor Party make the great mistake of seeing their opponents through the prism of their own disunity, of imagining that we are as fractured and faction ridden as them, of imagining that we have dissension in our ranks in the way they do in the Labor Party.

I see the smiling opposition leader. This is the hero of the Hoang Hau lazy Susan. There he was, turning the table on his leader. He has not only deposed one leader; he has deposed two. He had second thoughts.
