We have a prime minister, I'm the foreign minister, I'm trying to get on with the job of doing Australia's foreign policy.

I deeply believe that if the Australian Labor Party, a party of which I have been a proud member for more than 30 years, is to have the best future for our nation, then it must change fundamentally its culture and to end the power of faceless men. Australia must be governed by the people, not by the factions.

Australia is a nation of compassion. Courage and compassion. And the third of these great values: resilience.

I conclude where I began, I was elected by the people of Australia to do a job. I was not elected by the factional leaders of Australia, of the Australian Labor Party to do a job - though they may be seeking to do a job on me, that's a separate matter. The challenge therefore is to honour the mandate given to me by the Australian people.

The Government's mission is to build a strong and fair Australia capable of meeting the new challenges of the 21st century.

My name is Kevin, I'm from Queensland, and I'm here to help.
