I cannot assist the senator with the advice about—what was it?—a double skinny? Was it a latte? Double skinny what? I am sorry, I am not familiar with the term and I am therefore not able to help the senator with an answer. Given he has raised a specific issue about the Success, I am happy to take that onboard and see if I can get the minister to give the senator some further information about it. However, I do ask the senator to consider the tone of his questioning and whether this represents a bit of a drift into xenophobia inside the Liberal Party. There is a difference between supporting local jobs and perhaps sinking to a level that does not do him any justice. (Time expired)
