Yes, we've had this before, and the Manager of Opposition Business is correct: that title was used in a disparaging way. It was the other side that was doing it in another moment. If we can cease using that way to describe members of parliament from both sides of the chamber, it will greatly assist. The Treasurer is being directly relevant; he's in order, but, because it is clearly important to members, it is important he refer to all members by their titles, including the Speaker.
