I suggested to the social media team that we actually repost the video, but they said, 'In a two-party system based on a contest of ideas, it's really not the done thing.' But the problem here in contesting ideas with the shadow minister is he literally has no idea. When it comes to the two-party system, the Liberals are single-handedly trying to dismantle that concept. The only statement of substance that the shadow minister has said since being the shadow minister is that he wants to be the leader. But, if those opposite are going to turn to the shadow minister, I can assure them what they will get is a giant vacant space.
