SenateThursday 5 March 2026

QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator WONG (South Australia—Minister for Foreign Affairs and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:44): Senator, my recollection is actually that four out of six closed under the coalition. Senator Ayres pointed that out yesterday. But, do you see, this is the problem, Senator.

The advice to me is, as I've said, that we hold more fuel than at any time in the past 15 years. In your desire to attack the Labor government, you forgive the sins of Mr Taylor but you attack the Labor government. Now, it's fine if you wish to do that, but I think it demonstrates where your political allegiances really lie.
