My question is to the Prime Minister. Yesterday the Prime Minister was asked whether all his ministers had fully complied with the ministerial standards in all of their dealings with Mr Andrew Burnes and Helloworld. The Prime Minister answered:

I'm advised there's nothing before me that could conflict with the question that the member just put to me.

Prime Minister, is that still the case?

It is still the case, and I'm not going to take lectures form the leader of the Labor Party, who took eight years to disclose the campaign support he got from unions when he first ran for the parliament. I'm not going to take lectures from a bloke who won't even cooperate with the police when it comes to taking money out of union members' pockets and giving it to GetUp! and himself. I'm not going to be lectured by this bloke.
