Let's just bring some things to the attention of the chamber some things which were delivered by a Labor government either when Senator Watt was the chief of staff to the failed Labor Premier, or indeed when he was a part of the failed Labor government—the one that was punted. He was able to lose one of Labor's finest seats that had been held by a Labor member for 40 years without a break. Let's look at some of the appointments in Queensland—and this is directly relevant to Senator Watt and his colleagues. They appointed the former Labor ministers, Mike Reynolds and Paul Lucas to the boards of the Port of Townsville and Powerlink.
