I work with the Prime Minister in Australia’s biggest defence build-up we have even seen in this country. I work with the Prime Minister and his team of talented ministers. Most of all, I am going to work with the Prime Minister in making sure that the worst opposition in Australian history never gets elected to be a government. I am especially going to work to make sure that somebody so clearly ill equipped to be Prime Minister never gets anywhere near that job.
