I thank my dear friend the legendary member for Newcastle for her question. On the weekend, I opened Western Sydney University's new study hub in Fairfield with my great mate the Minister for Climate Change and Energy. It's where we grew up. It's also where I released the Australian universities accord: final report, and I did it there on purpose. That new university hub is smack-bang on the site where I got my first part-time job, collecting shopping trolleys at Fairfield Woolies. That was a long time ago: 1987.

Back then, this building still hadn't opened. There were still only three Star Wars movies. It probably should have stayed that way!
