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

The proposals, consistent with other measures that were put forward, are grandfathered, of course. But we're not prepared to sit back and accept that Australians are locked out of what is a broken housing system in this country. To say that we're going to do nothing about it—we, of course, have a majority in the House of Representatives, but in the Senate we don't have a majority. Therefore, we have to engage constructively. Those opposite, in the three right-wing parties, all choose irrelevance. They all choose irrelevance and not to debate. Although, it must be said that the member for Canning has said, in his party room, that he wouldn't bend the knee to One Nation. It's a real contrast with the bloke, the current leader of the opposition, who, when asked a question about monoculturalism four times, couldn't give an answer. He could not give an answer.
