That was an irrelevant point of order, and that's what we expect from this Labor Party: they are irrelevant when it comes to the country. They can't run the country properly and they can't do points of order properly either.

I want to go back to this urgency motion before someone gets me on relevance. It's going to cost small businesses across this country $13.3 billion in terms of restructuring because of the decisions made by you, because you don't understand how businesses operate, and it's a shame upon you. If we did not have businesses, they could not employ people. If people don't have jobs, it means they do not believe and do not join in the Australian dream, and that's what we want Australians to do, because the Australian dream is all about people like Senator Jonno Duniam, who is living the Australian dream. He's leaving this chamber, he's going out into the big wide world and we are going to miss him. We're going to miss his eloquence. We're going to miss everything about him. I encourage people to support this urgency motion.

Debate interrupted.
