I was referring to the member for Goldstein. Half of Australia’s wool industry has vanished. Fifty per cent of our sheep are gone. The Special Minister of State, who is at the table, is shaking his head. Go and have a fight with Alan Jones, because it was from Alan Jones’s program that I was quite staggered to find out that we had nearly 200 million sheep in Australia and now we have around 100 million. And you represent a sheep area, so you should be ashamed not to know that.
