Senator ABETZ (Tasmania—Leader of the Government in the Senate, Minister Assisting the Prime Minister for the Public Service and Minister for Employment) (14:52): Thank you, Mr President. One wonders where Senator Carr parked his crocodile after that display of crocodile tears! Can I say to the Senate, Peter Hodgman announced that he was going to run for the seat of Huon yesterday in the state of Tasmania. Lots of things happened yesterday that bear absolutely no relationship to GM's announcement today. This is trying a matter of trying to say that two types of activities are interlinked. They might be coincidental; they are not causal. They are coincidental and not causal, and that is something that Senator Carr and those opposite need to understand and reflect upon. The reality is this is a devastating blow to thousands of Australian workers. Senator Kim Carr: You are responsible! Senator ABETZ: Senator Carr foolishly forgets his own commentary on his own government when he said it was the inconsistency of his government's policy that left international executives wondering.
