Ms Julie Bishop Curtin, Liberal Party, Minister for Foreign Affairs
2:36 pm
He stood next to a Chinese benefactor, as I have never done, and publicly contradicted opposition policy on foreign affairs. Also, at no time have I ever had a benefactor who had alleged links with a foreign intelligence service while serving as the foreign minister or while serving on the National Security Committee. I know why the Labor Party is putting up the straw man argument. It is because the Leader of the Opposition has failed to investigate the very serious allegations against Senator Sam Dastyari, whom he then restored to his leadership position, and against the member for Hunter, who, as defence minister of this country and as a member of the National Security Committee, had a benefactor with alleged links to a foreign intelligence service. I can stand here and be proud of my record. Labor is covered in shame.
