I, too, rise to talk on a very important local event in my electorate which happened last weekend. I am sure most in this House would be aware of the Kangaroo Island Cup—the cup that stops the island—which was run on Saturday at the end of the three-day-long Kangaroo Island Racing Club meeting. It is a fantastic meeting. It truly does stop the island.

Some of you will not be aware of Kangaroo Island. I know the Parliamentary Secretary for Disabilities and Children’s Services, Mr Shorten, who is sitting on the front bench, has not been to the island. I wish he had been.
