QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator WATT (Queensland—Minister for the Environment and Water) (14:44): Well, some things don't change, do they? Senator Hanson, I know that it has always been your political agenda to try to divide Australians, to divide Indigenous Australians from other Australians and to divide other Australians from migrant Australians. This government will not engage in that kind of extreme division and chaotic argument that the One Nation party has been putting forward for the best part of 30 years.

We saw from the National Press Club last week that One Nation's recipe for Australia is more division, more chaos and more cuts, and that is not something that this Labor government will stand for. This government is about bringing Australians together, not about dividing them from each other. We'll leave it to Senator Hanson, along with her friends in the Liberal Party and the National Party—because they are all the same, with a couple of rare exceptions—to continue with that division.

That is not the Australian way. (Time expired) The PRESIDENT: I advise the chamber that Senator Babet has passed his question to Senator Roberts.
