Righto, I will not make a speech. I would like some guidance through a point of order as to the protocols in this parliament and in this chamber about the endorsement of a commercial product without my permission and the wearing of advertising material in the chamber. I thank you for your indulgence, Mr Acting Deputy President. I support the mining industry too but my point of order is it sets a precedent and the next thing we are going to have is 'Bill Heffernan: friend of marijuana' or 'Bill Heffernan: friend of Coca-Cola' without my permission. I have told the minerals and mining council to shove this and everyone else should too.
