I will acknowledge two things, Madam Deputy Speaker. I withdraw, and at the same time I will say that what I said was an exact quote of the Assistant Treasurer, and it is shameful. It is shameful because it shows the class warfare and the rubbish that goes on in the Labor Party. This is a party that has promised a failed FuelWatch scheme to get it through a political difficulty in relation to petrol. Petrol prices are at an all-time high, and the Rudd government is going to do nothing about it. They have promised $20 million to put fuel prices up on a website somewhere. It has not worked in Western Australia; it will not work for the rest of Australia. (Time expired)
