The idea that there was any delay between Monday morning and Tuesday, when we acted for the first time in the postwar era to expel an ambassador—something that those opposite or previous Labor governments had not done in the entire postwar period—is very serious, and it deserves a serious response.

They couldn't resist playing politics. You should be better than that. (Time expired)
