I'm welcoming more contributions from Senator Payne; that's what I'm doing. Now, seriously, lower productivity: if you want to talk about an IR system that delivers lower productivity, have a look in the mirror. You had nine years of delivering lower productivity through an IR system that was all about conflict and not about agreement. That's what we're trying to fix. We're trying to fix an IR system that is riven with conflict, and you want to drag us back to a system with lower productivity and lower wages That's why the Australian people voted against you, because they want more agreement and less conflict.
