You never fought the Left back. That is what I am saying. You never stood up to the Greens—never. And now they have devoured you. Now they are leading you around and you are in a crisis. Whether you realise it or not you are in a huge crisis because you cannot keep the blue-collar workers uninformed. They are becoming more and more informed, and you can see it in our polling and your polling. You may not like this, Senator Wong, but you are the fall guy. You are the guy who has been set up to dud the blue-collar workers. You might not like it, but you are.

We are opposed to this bill because we cannot see it doing anything on its own.
