Senator Thorpe, you are persistently and wilfully refusing to conform to the standing orders and disregarding the authority of me as the President. I ask you again to come to order and not to repeat remarks which you know are offensive. I am a long way down with standing order 203, Senator Thorpe, and I would not want you to miss the opportunity to make a contribution. But I am warning you: this is not a game. Every senator in here is expected to conform to the standing orders. That includes you.
