I did. It's good to beat Senator Watt—and we're going to beat him at the next election. The Labor Party have got one thing for the next election, and that is the great old scare campaign. They've opened the draw and they've pulled out the scare campaign because they're not going to run on their track record of the last two years, because that is atrocious. It is the scare campaign, and guess what that's going to be about: nuclear energy. We want cheaper energy for Australians, we want reliable energy for Australians and we want Australians to be able to put on their air conditioning and watch the TV. The mob over there want us to sit in a dark room somewhere, looking at the paint dry.
