The difference is that when you're presiding over government members, you are liberal with a small “l”, and when you're presiding over me you're a Liberal with a big “L”. I would ask for the same licence to address issues as they have been given in their interventions.
We have work to do. We have facts to expose. We have asked this party, this government, to allow us the chance to do so, but so far we've got nowhere. Even though we brought forward a motion today, which reflects what the Liberal House leader has been tweeting about, and we thought he would be delighted to see us put forward what he tweeted, now we get a “maybe”. We try our best to match the demands of the government to deliver a solution that will get us back to work, and then what do you know? They show up and say it's not good enough, that they need to think about it for another 48 hours.
Where does all this end? When do we get back to work? It's been five weeks.
