The reality is: this government and this Prime Minister have taken stronger action to stamp out criminal conduct in the CFMEU than any government ever has. We have done so because we are the Labor Party and we believe in the principles of trade unionism, and they do not extend to corruption, violence and organised crime.
What you did was try to go after workers, try to go after the principle of trade unions and try to go after the Labor Party. You were so focused on that political agenda, you didn't actually do the job you should have done.
