We need to build parliamentary support, Senator, because we know we cannot rely on you. We cannot rely on you to take your responsibility seriously. All we get from you are stunts at fruit-and-veggie shops, bike rides or appearances in budgie-smugglers, but no engagement in the public policy debate—just knocking, knocking, knocking, with nothing to say. So we are going to engage with the people who have a real interest in public policy and try to make sure we bring in a carbon price that allows us to see the transformation of our economy and our climate.
