My question is to the Prime Minister. Millions of Australians have now seen with their own eyes the Prime Minister's appalling behaviour on the Bush Deep podcast. Now, he embarrasses all of us by refusing to apologise to the Prime Minister of Japan. Why won't the Prime Minister stop treating us like fools? Man up, and say sorry to the Prime Minister of Japan.
