I'm trying to help you understand. You are burying leader after leader. You are doing it again. You got yourselves into the pickle that you were in last Saturday by continuing to take the partisanship approach that you have taken. I'm just saying to you that Australians reward oppositions that act in the national interest. That's what they want to see in their politics. That's what they want to see in their parliament. It's about time you got the message. I urge the Senate to support the motion that I outlined before.
