Yes. We can always assume that those opposite will fight about climate change and will unite around trade unions—against trade unions, one of the few things you actually agree on. The Prime Minister has made clear, as leader of the party, his views about Mr Setka's personal membership—personal membership—of the Australian Labor Party. There are many people who might point to the failure of those opposite at times to deal with some people in their ranks. But the Prime Minister, as leader of the party in opposition, was clear about his view of Mr Setka's membership of the Australian Labor Party, and that matter was dealt with by the party organisation. The matter of donations is a matter, as you know, for the party organisation.
