Senator FARUQI (New South Wales) (14:45): Minister, I have received thousands of emails in just the last two weeks from people across Australia who are angry at the way this government mistreats animals. Government senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order! Order on my right! Stop the clock. Order on my right. I need to hear the question. Senator Faruqi, to continue. Senator FARUQI: They want animal cruelty to end, but of course this government just does not care. Will the minister just be honest and admit once and for all that this government will prioritise profits for big business over animal welfare every single time?
