Deputy Speaker, I understand that I'm being interrupted rudely by someone from the government bench. I'm going to continue. In the absence of an anticorruption commission, we've only been able to scratch the surface of those scandals because, using all the resources of government, the Prime Minister has done everything he can to stymie any rigorous and independent investigation of those matters.

One of the Prime Minister's favourite talking points is 'if you can't manage money, you can't manage the country'. By that standard, the Prime Minister should have resigned long ago.
