Thank you to my colleague Senator Polley. The American President, Mr Obama, has delivered a strong reminder, for those who needed it, that the job of rebuilding the global economy as a consequence of last year’s events—the global financial and economic crisis; the worst economic crisis in some 75 years—is far from over. Unfortunately, those opposite—the Liberal and National parties—have seen a few green shoots and they think they have seen a jungle.
