It is frustrating, Senator McKenzie, that you sit there and just keep saying no. If you really wanted to be an alternative party of government—I'm starting to think, now, maybe things are so bad and you've lost so many elections that you've lost any hope of ever becoming an alternative party of government. But if you are serious about being an alternative party of government then one of the criteria for that is engaging with the government of the day. Look at what the Greens did. They didn't just roll over.
