Question Time in federal parliament

WHAT WE LEARNED

* $5.3 billion a year is being spent on mental health programs.

* As of 2.30pm on Thursday the opposition had asked 64 questions on Angus Taylor but only three on education since the election.

WHAT THE GOVERNMENT WANTED TO SPIN

* The government is helping improve Australians' mental health.

WHAT LABOR WANTED TO TALK ABOUT

* It was inappropriate for the prime minister to talk to the NSW police commissioner about an investigation into cabinet minister Angus Taylor.

WHAT THEY SAID

"Why does the prime minister think the usual standards of integrity and accountability don't apply to him?" - Labor leader Anthony Albanese on cabinet minister Angus Taylor.

"He's more interested in the political games of Canberra than he is the real issues that the people of Australia voted for us to focus on." - Prime Minister Scott Morrison on Albanese.
