Mr Acting Deputy President, I'm one of the ones still standing! I just want to endorse the other comments that have been made so far about Jacqui Lambie, especially those by Senator Kakoschke-Moore about the veterans. That work will continue in the Nick Xenophon Team and Derryn Hinch's Justice Party, and the Australian National Veteran Arts Museum on St Kilda Road will happen, and you'll be invited to the opening.

I admire your passion. I admire the fire in the belly. You never lost it. You will be back. Like MacArthur, you will return. I'm confident that that will happen. The only thing I'll say is that you and I have done some good stuff together in this chamber in our early times. I just have one question to put to you, and that is: which lady in red will I take to the Mid Winter Ball? Thank you. We'll miss you.
