Mr SHORTEN (Maribyrnong—Leader of the Opposition) (14:46): My question is to the Prime Minister. Today I was presented with this petition from thousands of front-line medical professionals, including over 2½ thousand GPs, calling upon the Prime Minister to abandon his GP tax. Given that thousands of front-line medical professionals reject the Prime Minister's GP tax, when will the Prime Minister abandon his unfair tax on every Australian? Mr Dutton interjecting— The SPEAKER: Before I call the deputy leader on her point of order, the Leader of the Opposition will desist from holding up props. Ms Plibersek: Madam Speaker, I rise on a point of order: the Minister for Health has accused these front-line health workers—GPs, nurses and others—of being unionists. He should withdraw his suggestion that these people are anything other than concerned doctors. Honourable members interjecting— The SPEAKER: Order! We will have a sense of decorum back in this chamber so we can hear what it is she is saying. If the Deputy Leader of the Opposition wishes to make a point, she will do so succinctly and now has the opportunity to do it. Ms Plibersek: Madam Speaker, I ask that the Minister for Health withdraw his suggestion that these doctors are anything other than concerned GPs. Mr Pyne: Madam Speaker, on the point of order: I did not notice the deputy leader showing this feigned indignation for the health services workers union when they were standing up for the former member for Dobell, Craig Thomson. On that basis, I do not see any reason why the Minister for Health should withdraw. Honourable members interjecting— The SPEAKER: We will have some silence so we can hear the Prime Minister, who has the call. Ms Plibersek interjecting— The SPEAKER: There was no unparliamentary language. It may have offended you personally but it was not unparliamentary.
