Title

  • Motions Morrison Government
  • Motions - Morrison Government - Stop Leader of the Opposition from speaking

Description

  • <p class="speaker">Anthony Albanese</p>
  • <p>I seek leave to move the following motion:</p>
  • <p class="italic">That the House:</p>
  • <p class="italic">(1) notes:</p>
  • <p class="italic">(a) there is a global pandemic;</p>
  • <p class="italic">(b) the Government had two jobs this year, to rollout the vaccine and establish a safe, national system of quarantine;</p>
  • <p class="italic">(c) instead of effectively rolling out the vaccine and establishing a safe, national system of quarantine, the incoming Deputy Prime Minister has been focussed on his own job;</p>
  • <p class="italic">(d) instead of focussing on the needs of Australians, the Abbott-Truss-Turnbull-Truss-Turnbull-Joyce-Turnbull-McCormack-Morrision-McCormack and now Morrison-Joyce Government has been focussed on fighting itself; and</p>
  • <p class="italic">(e) instead of building the jobs of the future, the incoming Deputy Prime Minister has said investing in renewables is "insane" and "lemming-like" and said "the Nationals have always been opposed to a net zero target"; and</p>
  • <p class="italic">(2) therefore, calls on members of the Morrison-Joyce Government to focus on the needs of Australians and not their own jobs.</p>
  • <p>Leave not granted.</p>
  • <p>I move:</p>
  • <p class="italic">That so much of the standing and sessional orders be suspended as would prevent the Leader of the Opposition from moving the following motion immediately:</p>
  • <p class="italic">That the House:</p>
  • <p class="italic">(1) notes:</p>
  • <p class="italic">(a) there is a global pandemic;</p>
  • <p class="italic">(b) the Government had two jobs this year, to rollout the vaccine and establish a safe, national system of quarantine;</p>
  • <p class="italic">(c) instead of effectively rolling out the vaccine and establishing a safe, national system of quarantine, the incoming Deputy Prime Minister has been focussed on his own job;</p>
  • <p class="italic">(d) instead of focussing on the needs of Australians, the Abbott-Truss-Turnbull-Truss-Turnbull-Joyce-Turnbull-McCormack-Morrision-McCormack and now Morrison-Joyce Government has been focussed on fighting itself; and</p>
  • <p class="italic">(e) instead of building the jobs of the future, the incoming Deputy Prime Minister has said investing in renewables is "insane" and "lemming-like" and said "the Nationals have always been opposed to a net zero target"; and</p>
  • <p class="italic">(2) therefore, calls on members of the Morrison-Joyce Government to focus on the needs of Australians and not their own jobs.</p>
  • <p>This is a government that has been focused on just one job&#8212;his job&#8212;not the jobs of Australians. It has not been focused on the rollout of the vaccine&#8212;</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p>
  • <p>The Leader of the Opposition will resume his seat. The Leader of the House has the call.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Peter Dutton</p>
  • <p>I move:</p>
  • <p class="italic">That the member be no longer heard.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Tony Smith</p>
  • <p>The question is that the Leader of the Opposition be no longer heard.</p>
  • The majority voted in favour of a [motion](https://www.openaustralia.org.au/debate/?id=2021-06-22.69.4):
  • > *That the Member [Leader of the Opposition and Grayndler MP [Anthony Albanese](https://theyvoteforyou.org.au/people/representatives/grayndler/anthony_albanese)] be no longer heard.*
  • This means that Mr Albanese can no longer contribute to this debate. These types of motions are known as *gagging orders*.
