I seek to make a personal explanation.

Order! Does the member claim to be misrepresented?

I do.

The Prime Minister, in question time today, in quoting an article I wrote in Jacobin, said that the article said that 30,000 homes were being opposed. Those words do not at any point appear in the article. I would ask that the Prime Minister come back and withdraw those comments. The words you attributed to me do not appear in the article.

I didn't do that, Mr Speaker. I seek leave to give a personal explanation.

I refer to the member for Griffith and the comments that he just made in parliament. I gave direct quotes from his article. There were two direct quotes from his article which went to the campaign that he's running. I'm happy to give him leave to table his article because it exposes the political nature of the opposition to 30,000 public housing units, which this member is engaged with.

The member for Macnamara will cease interjecting. He's not in his seat. Is the member for Griffith seeking to table a document?

Max Chandler-Mather (Griffith, Australian Greens) Share this | Link to this | Hansard source

I would love to. I don't have it.

Resume your seat.

Honourable members interjecting—

Order! The House will come to order!

Opposition members interjecting—

Members on my left! The Prime Minister is seeking the call.
