Yes, you know! Guess who knocked it down? But there are people who've read the Book of Revelation and they reside up the back there, and I want to go through a couple of their quotes. This is the member for McMahon:

The Senate just voted to over-rule Angus Taylor's regulation to waterdown ARENA's commitment to renewable energy. The LNP keeps attacking ARENA …

And Joel Fitzgibbon, the member for Hunter, said, 'I call a spade a spade, and my colleagues won't thank me—no, they won't thank me—but this isn't very clever.' You're not very clever, you see. This isn't very clever. I'm sure we're supposed to win. But the best one is the member for Grayndler: 'But we won't agree to the renewable energy agencies like ARENA, the clean energy fund and supporting things like hydrogen'—which your ALP policy platform actually says you do support. But it is all right, because we had the member for Hunter saying the government was proposing to put more money into something they were already doing. The Labor Party is all at sea on jobs, and maybe the Labor Party is two parties.
