Senator BIRMINGHAM (South Australia—Minister for Finance, Leader of the Government in the Senate and Vice-President of the Executive Council) (14:50): Again, I reject the premise of that question. The Prime Minister was very clear in relation to his condemnation of violence and very clear in relation to the fact that it has no place in a protest or in any other such activity, nor do those seeking to provoke or promote acts of violence in any way. For those opposite who want to keep repeating and repeating and repeating a falsehood or an assertion, it is a matter for them to explain why it is that rather than wanting to come into this place and debate the issues for Australians around their jobs, their lives and the many challenges that people face. Pleasingly, we have seen us come through COVID-19 in such a successful way, with some of the lowest fatality rates around the world in this country, some of the strongest economic outcomes and some of the highest vaccination rates. This is a testament to Australia's success.
