Resume your seat. The Prime Minister is being directly relevant. He's talking about the national accounts. Yes, he was asked one specific thing about that, but he's obviously being directly relevant if he's talking about the figures that he was asked about by the member for Moncrieff. The political question at the end, as I indicated to the House before, completely opens this question up, which is different from the questions yesterday. But this one is broader in its context—I get it—so the Prime Minister is going to be broader in his answer.

Honourable members interjecting—

Order! The Prime Minister can continue and is going to be heard in silence. This is beyond a joke, the way that childish, snide remarks are being added in. It's not dignified. I don't know how else to explain it. I can only imagine what the gallery thinks. The Prime Minister has the call.
