Madam Acting Deputy President, through you, I'd like to address Senator Pratt's comments. It is quite clear that I referenced and referred to this bill at the start and commended the government on its actions for fixing some of the problems that Labor governments in the past have caused. I am talking particularly now about the core of that bill, which is trying to get doctors into rural areas. We know of some areas where doctors are being enticed with salaries of $500,000 and it's still difficult to find doctors. What I'm saying is that we need to do much more than just tidy up the errors that the Labor Party developed in its past—impractical errors. I'm going to the heart of the problem with rural communities right now: the abandonment of them by the federal government.

The 1996 UN Kyoto Protocol, which I have discussed, led to the theft of property rights. If anyone wants to know the relevance of property rights, then look at any rural community in Queensland or in New South Wales. Then we had the 2015 UN Paris agreement, under Prime Minister Abbott and Prime Minister Turnbull. That was not just an agreement for every nation to do what they wanted to do. Australia legislated severe cuts while China said they would consider doing something in 30 years, maybe. Meanwhile, we destroy our industries and economy and hand the jobs to the Chinese and others.

I'd now like to quote from the UN Agenda 21 book that is driving this. Maurice Strong, the Secretary-General of the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development, said in the foreword to this instruction:

There is much to be done. And I look to the new United Nations Commission on Sustainable Development to be the focal point for the massive effort needed to create the new era of international cooperation, the new global partnership, that will make this shift possible.

We're talking here about global governance from the UN. Then we have the words of the manual itself. These are the UN's words:

Agenda 21 stands as a comprehensive blueprint for action to be taken globally—from now into the twenty-first century—by Governments, United Nations organizations, development agencies, non-governmental organizations and independent-sector groups, in every area in which human activity impacts on the environment.

That means every area of human livelihood, human existence. It goes on to say:

The Agenda should be studied in conjunction with both the Rio Declaration—which provides a context for its specific proposals—and the statement of forest principles—

which is embraced by the UN—

It is hoped that the forest principles will form the basis for a future international-level agreement.

The United Nations and Maurice Strong, who was the head of that particular part of the UN at the time, has admitted to pushing for unelected socialist global governance.

How do they get away with it—stealing our country's sovereignty and destroying constitutional governance? It's easy. It preys on the party system in which both failed old parties seek to grow their parties at the country's expense. I will read from Simone Weil, the French philosopher, and her On the abolition of all political parties. Simone Weil says:

To assess political parties according to the criteria of truth, justice and the public interest, let us first identify their essential characteristics. There are three of these: 1. A political party is a machine to generate collective passions.

We can see that.

2. A political party is an organisation designed to exert collective pressure upon the minds of all its individual members.

We can see that.

3. The first objective and also the ultimate goal of any political party is its own growth, without limit.

And that is how they do it. Each party follows an agenda.

The leftovers, known as the Greens, are the UN's foot soldiers—what Lenin used to call the 'useful idiots'. And political correctness following this familiar pattern of the leftovers, known as the Greens, is thus: fabricate a problem, concoct a victim, conjure an oppressor, pretend a solution, identify an ideology to control it all, wrap it in smoke and mirrors, rope in and align potential allied victims, use political correctness to shut down debate—
