For speaking untruths. I withdraw, Mr Deputy Speaker. Mr Crean told the Australian:

I never asked him for a factional stitch-up. Never. I asked him for one thing, and that’s to repeat what he said 12 months ago, that he needed my experience on the front bench.

So we had Crean on Beazley, we had Beazley on Crean and then, of course, we had Gillard on Beazley.
