Once again, I indicate—

Senator Wong interjecting—

Once again, Senator Wong cannot contain herself. It is interjections nonstop from this Leader of the Opposition in the Senate during question time, especially when her questions are based on such a flawed premise. I indicate that the whole premise of her question is rejected. For the opposition to base their question time strategy on media speculation is indicative of the paucity of their policy platform. All they can do is whinge. All they can do is whine, as we saw Mr Shorten do at the Press Club last week. It was a real 'dine and whine'. All dinner there was whining and not a single answer to the issues confronting this nation, including the budgetary mess that, as finance minister, Senator Wong left us. (Time expired)
