I thank the Senate. I really want to put on the record about the motion by the Greens, whilst they were trying to be clever about the Earth being round and the moon-landing and so forth in relation to climate change, that I really didn't recognise that they worshipped and were so desperate to align themselves with the Northern Hemisphere, including the Trump presidency, by changing the date in Australia of when man landed on the moon. It was actually 21 July 1969, not 20 July as the Greens would have you believe.

Honourable senators interjecting—

I hear the interjection: 'Tell NASA that!' Unfortunately, Senator Whish-Wilson and Senator Di Natale, we are in the Southern Hemisphere. You are senators for Australia. You are senators in the Australian parliament. You are not part of the Donald Trump or the Kennedy or the Clinton administration, no matter how much you'd like to be. So, please, stick to the facts, get your motions accurate in this place and then maybe, just maybe, there will be less cynicism about the Greens and your motions.
