That is a somewhat tasteless supplementary question, Senator. That question really goes to the issues of immigration policy and should be directed to the appropriate minister. It shows the attitude of those opposite who are willing to be completely and destructively negative in this policy area, and in every policy area. They are always willing to trash the national interest if they think they can make a political win out of it, if they think they can make a political point. Your agenda and your attitude on this, Senator, is demonstrated by the questions you ask on this issue.
