 That was all dishonest—very dishonest of Labor. It was very, very dishonest. It was dishonest to the voters out there, who think that the two major parties are the way to go when they are rorting the system every day here and siding with each other to scrape the bottom of the barrel and try to pass legislation tonight because you stitched it up. You got in bed together to disallow Independents, people of colour and the battlers out there from being represented in this place. This was done by your masters of the colony—one for the Labor Party and one for the Liberal Party. They're masters of the colony. You want to maintain the white supremacy of the colony.
