QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Mr ALBANESE (Grayndler—Prime Minister) (14:13): Well, it's pretty bold of the Leader of the Opposition to speak about cleaning up messes when his shadow ministers are out there saying that the Liberal Party should be dissolved and start again. That is effectively what they're saying. When it comes to taxes, when his deputy leader is out there doing interviews and speaking about 'egregious tax cuts'—Senator Hume is the Deputy Leader of the Opposition.

She's not the leader in the Senate. She's the Deputy Leader of the Liberal Party, but someone else is leader in the Senate, someone else is deputy leader in the Senate. It's just a shemozzle.

The SPEAKER: The Leader of the Opposition, on his point of order. Mr Taylor: It's on relevance. There are widows, divorcees and victims of family and domestic violence who want to know an answer to this question.

Mr ALBANESE: I gave an answer to the first question, which is that none of those people will be impacted. What we see from the Leader of the Opposition in the House of Representatives is a mess. They are such a mess.

They talk about cleaning up, but the Liberal Party can't decide whether they are in favour of tax cuts or against them. They voted against the tax cuts in the parliament last week, they then said they were for them, and then, this morning, they said they're egregious. I suggest that the Leader of the Opposition get his own act together.

The worse he goes, the more he chirps. I've made it very clear that no-one will be negatively impacted. The people who they speak about in this are very clear.

We'll make that very clear. The fact is that they don't even know if their party should be continued in the next week.
