What an unalloyed pleasure it is to follow the member for Hotham after his passionate and blistering contribution to the debate. The people of Hotham who listened to his speech today no doubt understand how well represented they are. It also says a lot about the wisdom of the ALP branch members in Hotham who, last year, stood up in such vast numbers in support of him. His intelligence and energy are a source of inspiration to me. I am sure the minister at the table has been listening to and making notes of the member for Hotham’s contribution.
