He is trying too hard, this bloke. He is trying too hard. He really is a try-hard today. Let me put the Leader of the Opposition out of his misery by quoting from the government's industry, innovation and competitiveness paper, which states on page 51:

… the Government will provide a further $3.5 million to encourage the introduction of computer coding across different year levels in Australian schools.

We are doing it. This is a leader of the opposition who demands that the government does what it is already doing, because he just did not do his homework. When the Leader of the Opposition was at school, I thought homework was encouraged, but he seems to have forgotten. The one thing you have to do if you want to be a credible, alternative leader, is do your homework, and if you had done your homework you would find that the government had beaten you to it.
