which Senator Hanson and Senator Roberts voted against only last year when they had an opportunity to work with us to put those limits around migration. You ask about wages? Seriously? Ever since Senator Hanson entered this parliament, around the same time as me, she has voted against every move the Labor Party has taken to lift wages in this country, and she has the hide to come into this chamber and ask what we're doing about wages? This goes back to well before we were in government. When we were trying to change the law in opposition, you voted with Senator Cash and the Liberal Party to stop coalminers getting the pay that they were entitled to when we tried to fix the same-job same-pay laws. You did it in opposition, and you've done it since we've been in government. Seriously. (Time expired)
