I have indicated the facts of this matter to the parliament. The facts of this matter, as outlined by me, mean I do not agree with the member for Holt. Having said that, this is a democracy. This is the nation's parliament, and I believe that people should be able to come here and put their views. So the Leader of the Opposition is asking me to thug the member for Holt and I will not do so; I am not that kind of person.
