We have just heard Senator Abetz ranting and raving and mixing his metaphors here. So far, we have had jackboots, the guillotine and the puff of white smoke. But let us actually go to what happened. The coalition actually guillotined the privatisation of Telstra after 14 hours of debate and only a one-day inquiry. Let's just get that on the record. Not only that, but the coalition also guillotined the Northern Territory intervention.
