My question is to the Acting Prime Minister. It has been one year since this government began its assault on Australian families, jobs, hospitals, schools and pensioners. No wonder Australians are angry at this government, who spent every day in the past year breaking its promises. Why should the Australian people have to pay the price for a Prime Minister who lied his way into office?

The member will rephrase the question, removing 'lied'.

No, I won't rephrase the question.

Then I will rule it out of order.
