The member for Melbourne Ports and I have got long memories about the member for Higgins. I suspect that the excruciating pantomime that we are currently all being exposed to—it is pretty excruciating for the Leader of the Opposition but it is, sadly, excruciating for the rest of the general public as well—is something we are going to have to put up with for a while. Maybe it is the member for Higgins going through some kind of public therapy process: all his angst and his bitterness being taken out.
