I ask a supplementary question. On a number of occasions Prime Minister Turnbull has referred to Australia as having shared values to those of the United States. On behalf of the Australian Greens I seek some clarification of these shared values. Is he referring to President Donald Trump's intention to reintroduce torture, provoking a new nuclear weapons arms race, deliberate escalation of tensions with Iran, threats of a war in the South China Sea, the invasion of Mexico, the banning of Muslims from entering the United States, contempt for the rule of law and his weird admiration for authoritarian regimes?
