My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Conroy. Given Minister Butler's comments that he would not stay at Rooty Hill RSL because it was 'a bit too Benny Hill', and that he could not check in with a straight face, how can Western Sydney residents, who are more worried about their own credit position as they juggle their increasing bills and the AAA credit rating, have any faith that this government understands the challenges they face when it treats them and an important local institution like Rooty Hill RSL, which gave $1 million to their local community last year, with such contempt?
