I seek leave to correct the record.
Leave granted.
In a speech I gave to this chamber two weeks ago, I stated that the Labor Party supported the invasion of Iraq. Of course, what I meant to say was that the Labor Party supported the invasion of Afghanistan.

Thank you. I appreciate that Senator Di Natale has come into the chamber and corrected the record of yesterday's debate where he made an egregious mistake, claiming that Labor supported the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Labor certainly did not support that. I was offended, as were my Labor colleagues, that he could make such a complicit error about what is clearly on the record. Labor did not support that.
