When Senator Feeney called upon me to be honest, I would like to think that I am disarmingly honest. Let me share something with the chamber. That contribution by Senator Feeney must have absolutely killed the good senator because he put in a very spirited defence of the Prime Minister, and it is well known that Senator Feeney and the Prime Minister are not the closest of colleagues. I commend him for the team game that he played there. A couple of weeks ago I was on Sky against my regular sparring partner, Mark Butler. For those colleagues who do not know Mr Butler, he is a very lovely man.
