I'll take that, Senator Reynolds. What a foolish question to raise! If Senator Reynolds knew anything about the trucking industry, she would know that trucking businesses, companies and associations across this country support what the Albanese government did, but you, you, you and you opposed it, because you don't like truck drivers and trucking business getting a fair shake. They don't want fair competition. They don't want small business to have a fair shake. They want to make sure the big gorillas at the top keep lining their pockets and putting their hands in the pockets of small business. That's why they want to vote against low wages being increased. That's why they want to vote against rights for small businesses and other businesses in the supply chains of these big, big, big companies like miners. We know what they're up to. I know what Senator Reynolds is up to. Along with the others, she wants to make sure the mining industry keeps putting its hands in the pockets of hardworking Australians.
