We have here an amalgam of the opposition. On the one hand, we have Madam Xerox, the world’s greatest copier. We have others who are now seeking to misrepresent the situation in regard to the importance of Australian manufacturing to the Australian economy; I am disappointed. I am very disappointed that the opposition maintains such a callous disregard for the welfare of working people in this country. Of course, you would expect that after 12 years of Work Choices.
