My question is to the Prime Minister. Today thousands of farmers from around Australia have travelled to Canberra, rallying against Labor's decision to ban live sheep exports and other antifarming policies. After two years of bad regulation, ideological rhetoric and job-killing policies, it has been reported that the mining industry, representing 10 per cent of GDP, took the Prime Minister's Minerals Week speech as a declaration of war. Can the Prime Minister explain why he is fixated on policies that hurt Western Australia, risk jobs and make life harder for families and businesses in my state?
