I love you too! What I would say to senior members of the coalition is we are very happy to have bipartisanship on the largest project that Australia has ever undertaken. It's the largest undertaking this country has ever undertaken both as a proportion of GDP and in nominal figures and in terms of the sheer scale of the task. I would have hoped that, despite whatever debate we have about energy, there might be some modicum of responsibility from the people who want to run this country on national security. But it is clear, as Mr Dutton was on the PM, that they have no line and they are prepared try to play politics with our national security. We are not. (Time expired)
