Senator ROBERTS (Queensland) (15:36): I seek leave to make a short statement. The DEPUTY PRESIDENT: Leave is granted for one minute. Senator ROBERTS: The Greens used this general business notice of motion No. 185 to blackmail a gutless, uncaring government selling out workers. Come on. What was the dirty deal? The Greens talk about transparency. So come on: what was the deal? There are empty platitudes about transparency. Labor is selling out workers again. Labor is selling out manufacturing again. Labor is selling out taxpayers again. Labor is selling out families again. These was just a stunt by the Greens to leverage and put pressure on the Labor Party, and the Labor Party has caved yet again to the tail that is wagging the dog.
