Mr Hanson interjecting—

Mr Barr interjecting—

MADAM SPEAKER: Mr Hanson, Chief Minister, can we allow the minister to answer.

MS BERRY: What a shame that we had comments from Mr Hanson in the paper recently saying, “Not in our suburb. Bugger off, we’re full.” It sounds—

Mrs Dunne: A point of order.

MADAM SPEAKER: Mrs Dunne, I expect I know what the point of order is.

Mrs Dunne: I draw your attention to unparliamentary language and ask the minister to withdraw.

MADAM SPEAKER: Yes. Can you please withdraw.

MS BERRY: I withdraw, Madam Speaker.

Mr Hanson: Tell the truth, Yvette.

Mr Parton: A supplementary.

MADAM SPEAKER: I am considering Mr Hanson’s interjection. I ask people to be very mindful of language, whether you are on your feet or sitting on your rear end, not to impugn the reputation of members in this place. You were very close to it then, Mr Hanson.

Mr Hanson: Well, she should tell the truth, Madam Speaker.

Ms Berry: Madam Speaker, a point of order. You might not have heard, because of all the interjections, but Mr Hanson did accuse me of lying previously. I know you have drawn attention to it, but now he is also saying that I should tell the truth. I said “things like”. I did not quote him verbatim, and that is not lying.

Mr Hanson: Madam Speaker, I am sorry—

MADAM SPEAKER: On the point of order, Mr Hanson?

Mr Hanson: On the point of order, Madam Speaker, saying in this place that Mr Hanson has been saying “Bugger off, we don’t want you in Chapman” is clearly not true, Madam Speaker—

MADAM SPEAKER: Mr Hanson, can you resume your seat.

Mr Hanson: and you called it as such.
