As we know, it is Labor Party policies which are the greatest threat, and we have to understand that one of the greatest things the Australian people can do with any government is to trust them. And, unfortunately, we can't trust the opposition, which allows the member for Batman to vote when he actually shouldn't be here and which allows Senator Gallagher to vote when she shouldn't actually be here. We've got the member for Longman up there—the member for Longman is still a British citizen.
Remember that the Leader of the Opposition has got his back turned to you in Bennelong. He's got his back turned to you, because he doesn't believe you. He's a very untrustworthy, shifty character—this man with his back turned to you. It is absolutely important that we don't get the same party that gave us Tripodi, that gave us Macdonald, that gave us Dastyari, and that is now about to give us Keneally in the seat of Bennelong. We know the Australian people can send the Labor Party a message and keep you there—oh, here he is! (Time expired)
