Mathias Cormann (WA, Liberal Party, Minister for Finance) Share this | Hansard source

I take on notice what meetings the Prime Minister has had in recent times, but let me tell you: on this side of parliament, all of us—on the government side of the parliament—we will always do what is right by the economy, we will always do what is right by jobs and we are, indeed, a strong and united team committed to doing what is right when it comes to lower electricity prices and more reliable energy supplies, unlike the Labor Party. The Labor Party today is deeply divided. The alternative leader of the Labor Party, Mr Albanese, is concerned about Mr Shorten's war on business, and he's right to be concerned. Today, of course, we've seen that the local member for Bass, Mr Hart, is not prepared to back up Mr Shorten. Presumably, he's in the Albanese column. We want to know from Ms Keay, in Braddon: is she in the Albanese or the Shorten column? Is she in the pro-business or the anti-business column? Is she in the pro-jobs or the anti-jobs column? If she is supporting Mr Shorten's war on business, she should be put last. (Time expired)
