This Prime Minister and I stopped the boats, and we kept them stopped. This Leader of the Opposition, when he was last in a position of power, presided over policies which saw people, including women and children, drowning at sea. He lost control of our borders, and it cost $16 billion. It was an international disgrace. None of those mistakes have been made by this Prime Minister. If you want to compare the pair, if you want to look at ways in which we are keeping our country secure, if you want a comparison of character, which is important, you don't hang out in a museum talking to Bob Carr and Paul Keating and some other murky figure You stand up for our country, which is what this leader is doing.
