My question is to the Prime Minister. Today it's been reported that the Australian Ambassador to the United States, Joe Hockey, who has a $1 million shareholding in Helloworld, helped a Helloworld subsidiary lobby for the embassy's travel contract. How could it possibly be appropriate for Joe Hockey to use his official position as ambassador to help Helloworld win a government contract? Why does this Liberal government only ever look after itself and its mates at the top end of town?
