I am sure those words will haunt the Manager of Opposition Business, because the only bizarre act of snobbery I can see is a man who believes that he can make public comment to the Australian people and then take the exact opposite position and believe he can get away with it.
There are a lot of things that are unfair, and we have seen a sort of collective amnesia fall over members opposite regarding what has gone on with Coles workers and the SDA. The union is in such a shambles that it has traded away penalty rates for those 15-year-olds. But we don't hear those opposite crying about that, saying how unfair it is. That is what we would really like to hear on this side. We would really like for Labor to care more about those young 15-year-olds—and to care less about backing their union mates who rip us off.
