Ms GILLARD (Lalor—Prime Minister) (14:45): This has now become truly embarrassing. Here we are. The Deputy Leader of the Opposition was out there with this huge conspiracy theory yesterday, with these big allegations against me. She was out there making false claims, then forgetting that she had made the false claims, then denying the false claims, and then not telling the truth about the nature and number of her conversations with Mr Blewitt. Then, today, so much of an embarrassment is she that she cannot go to the Leader of the Opposition's book launch. The SPEAKER: The Prime Minister will return to the question. Ms GILLARD: So much of an embarrassment is she that she is the one who has to ask these questions while the strategy is now being done over there without her. To the Deputy Leader of the Opposition I say in all sincerity: please, stop embarrassing yourself. It is just getting too painful to watch. Mr Hockey interjecting— The SPEAKER: The member for North Sydney is warned.
