Consistently, he has not. He has said the 'noalition' can't be about a specific party, and it's not. It's about all of them. It's not about any individual, and the 'noalition' is when you have people combining from different ideological perspectives to form something new, something that's about blocking, not about advancing. And that is precisely the opportunity that people in the coalition or in the Greens have. Either of them have the opportunity to be a part of something positive, being a part of going forward rather than simply blocking. I say it is time. The Senate will have the opportunity to pass this legislation in the last week or move on, and it will be the responsibility of those people who don't support this legislation, the consequences of it, and they'll be held to account, just as they were held to account for the actions of the 'noalition' on 3 May.
