by leave—What we've just heard from Senator Georgiou is further evidence of the absolute catastrophe, the absolute chaos, that One Nation has become in this chamber and, really, all around the country. I'm sure that before long we're going to be hearing from Senator Burston again, and who knows what he's going to say? Who knows whether he's signed up to yet another party? Only yesterday morning he was an Independent and, miraculously, two or three minutes later he was a member of Clive Palmer's new party. Maybe there's been a third change in the last 24 hours.

But really today the focus in the statements we are receiving from Senator Georgiou and, I anticipate, Senator Burston needs to be on the absolute circus that the One Nation party, headed by Senator Pauline Hanson, has become. Just remember that of the 30 members of parliament or senators who have ever been elected in Australia under the One Nation banner there are now 21. Seventy per cent of those people have now either resigned from the party, been kicked out of the party or been kicked out of parliament. Here's another one: Senator Anning. We've got three of them in the room now. All we need is Senator Culleton to come back through and former Senator Roberts to come back through and we can have the full menagerie of One Nation!
