Senator Ludlam says that some will kill themselves. It is a bit rich for Senator Ludlam and Senator Hanson-Young, who just dismiss the hundreds of people who die at sea—the thousands of souls that float around as a result of the Greens' policies—

Senator Hanson-Young interjecting—

You should creep yourself out—not just the rest of Australia—because, honestly, how can you live with yourself at night? It is extraordinary. None make so much noise as the empty vessels, and we have heard a lot of noise about a whole range of things, none of them directly relevant to the fact that thousands of people are dying at sea because of the stupid and ridiculous policies that the Greens want to encourage to keep them there. It is extraordinary.
