Mr ABBOTT (Warringah—Leader of the Opposition) (14:04): I have a supplementary question to the Prime Minister, Mr Speaker. Is the Prime Minister aware that the head of Xstrata said yesterday that her mining tax would cost investment and cost jobs? Is she still peddling the lie that the miners want to pay this tax? Honourable members interjecting— Mr Stephen Smith: Mr Speaker, the reference in the Leader of the Opposition's question is unparliamentary. It should be withdrawn. Mr Abbott interjecting— The SPEAKER: I checked with the Leader of the Opposition, by way of explanatory interjection, which word was used. Mr ABBOTT: If it would help, is she still peddling the line that the miners want to pay her big new tax?
