Again Senator Macdonald just gives misinformation to the chamber. At no stage did I say that the Greens could not afford it. I was talking about smaller parties in general and particularly giving emphasis to emerging parties. This is about ensuring that the democratic process allows the new forces that are thrown up within our society that want to engage with the electoral process to do so. That is what I was talking about, and at least he could be accurate when he comes into this chamber.
