‘If members want to continue interjecting, I’ll eject them,’ Smith snaps. When Scott Morrison fails to respond quickly to a question from the opposition, Smith warn the prime minister, ‘I’m asking you to return to the question,’ Morrison quickly responds, ‘Happy to do that, Mr Speaker.’

Smith then says: ‘I don’t care whether you’re happy or not. You need to return to the question’.
