You've probably never visited one, Senator Wong, even though the shearers actually started the Labor Party, under the Tree of Knowledge at Barcaldine. Those in the Labor Party could not even load a handpiece let alone shear a sheep, because you are no longer the workers' party; you are the extreme leftist socialists, tied up there with the Greens—that is what you are, and that is why the people have deserted your party in droves. That is why your primary vote is 27 per cent—because you do not understand the working people of Australia. So, if you want an argument about a shearing shed, bring it on!

Let me get back to where I was. They were saying over that side that 95 per cent of those who were processed in Nauru came to Australia. That is wrong. That is simply wrong.
