She turns up to a meeting of growers last week, a meeting that was designed to allow growers to ask questions, and she and the member for Frome decide that, no, this is not time for growers to ask questions; this is time for them to grandstand politically—for the Leader of the Opposition in this place and the member for Frome to grandstand politically.</text>
