My question is to the Minister for Foreign Affairs and goes to her ministerial responsibility to be aware of political developments overseas. The former conservative prime minister of the UK, David Cameron, said overnight:

As a former PM it's very difficult to sit as a backbencher and not be an enormous diversion and distraction from what the government is doing.

Can the Foreign Minister explain the government's position on Mr Cameron's comments and is she aware of any other former prime ministers in any other countries causing an enormous diversion from the back bench?
