This is a press statement. I would say lots of things about the member for Grayndler, who I have known for a few years now, but I would never say that the member for Grayndler is not capable of reading a media statement. I think he has read the media statement and he has read what has been said by the Electoral Commission. And when he chooses to ignore it, he is simply casting aspersions on the Australian Electoral Commission. If he wishes to do that, he should do so in another place.
