MR SPEAKER: Order! I have given the members of the opposition a number of warnings over the course of the two weeks of sitting now and frankly by the time we reach today—

Mr Seselja: Okay, that goes for the two weeks now, does it? Mr Speaker, I do not need to respond. I put it on the record, we can—

Mr Barr: You have made him speechless, Mr Speaker.

Mr Stanhope: Speechless, thank God.

MR SPEAKER: As I was saying, I take an approach where I seek over a period of time—

Mr Hargreaves: Is this a murder of crows?

MR SPEAKER: Order, members! I do seek to convey my views on the conduct of the chamber over a period of time. I have sought very consistently to convey them to members of the opposition. We have reached today where, frankly, those are not being listened today. Clearly, I needed to provide warnings to convey myself more clearly.

Mr Doszpot: Mr Speaker, the Chief Minister deserves a yellow card as well.

Mr Hanson: I just want to confirm that because this Chief Minister’s statement was that the Greens-Labor alliance is an alliance and it is designed to keep you—

MR SPEAKER: Is this a point of order, Mr Hanson?

Mr Hanson: in opposition for 10 years. That did not affect it in any way at all, Mr Speaker?

MR SPEAKER: Mr Hanson, is there a point of order? Is there a point of order, Mr Hanson?

Mr Hanson: Yes.

MR SPEAKER: Do not be frivolous. Ms Burch, you are free to continue.

MS BURCH: Thank you. The second is to assist in the delivery of culturally appropriate services and programs within Bimberi.

Mr Doszpot: So it is an alliance designed to keep the opposition in opposition—

Mr Stanhope: Another lie; another lie.

Mr Doszpot: That is what you said. It is on the Hansard.
