Anthony Albanese (Grayndler, Australian Labor Party, Prime Minister) Share this | Hansard source

I missed the question; I just heard the sledge. I'm responding to it as I responded to sledges across the chamber. What it boils down to—it's hard to follow the plots over there. The Liberals fighting each other, the Nats fighting each other, and the Liberals then fighting the Nats. When they go to their party conferences, it's everyone fighting the leadership of the Liberal Party and the National Party. They go to a party conference up in Queensland, and they say that you should argue in favour of modernisation and we should support net zero. We need to learn the lessons of the past, but what we see is just division—no policies being put forward—and now we're reduced to just sledging.
