My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to the fact that this Prime Minister has spent decades as an activist seeking to change Labor policy on border protection, including campaigning against boat turn backs, offshore processing and temporary protection visas. Can the Prime Minister guarantee that he's not received any advice that the government's watering down of Operation Sovereign Borders is likely to result in more people-smuggled arrivals?

I can guarantee that we will implement the precise policy which we took to the election, which is a policy that I support because I am the leader. We took it to the election, and I haven't seen a need to swear myself into other portfolios. Because when you lead your party to an election and win, as we did last May, you implement the policies that you put in place, and you don't run around and undermine your ministers, like your leader did to you when you were the minister. I can also guarantee that we won't be sending out shonky text messages on the day of the next election.

Order! The House will come to order so I can hear from the member for Boothby.
