My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Brandis. The minister yesterday told the Senate that 'flirting with One Nation is poison for my side of politics'. Why then did the Prime Minister fail to follow former Prime Minister Howard's lead and prevent the LNP from preferencing One Nation in 49 seats at Saturday's election?
