Barnaby Joyce (New England, National Party, Leader of the Nationals) Share this | Hansard source

I accept your admonishment, Mr Speaker. But the question is whether the leader of the Labor Party is going to stand up for labourers tonight? Is he going to stand up for farmers? Is he actually going to stand up for the steelworkers at Arrium, because he has not stood up for them today? He has left them hanging today. He will not go back to work on Friday for the steelworkers. He will not go back to work on Friday for the coalminers. He does not believe in labourers any more than the Labor Party. (Time expired)
