J.M.A. LENSINK Legislative Council Murray-Darling Basin Plan The Hon.

HUNTER Legislative Council Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation Murray-Darling Basin Plan The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation) (14:36): I think the proof is in the eating of the pudding. In fact, it was this state that united the South Australian communities—typical Labor-voting communities with typical Liberal-voting communities. We put aside politics for the good of the state. The Hon. J.M.A. Lensink Legislative Council The Hon. J.M.A. Lensink: You did not. The Hon. I.K. HUNTER Legislative Council The Hon. I.K. HUNTER: We took on our own side. You don't do it. When have you stood up against the federal Liberal government for the good of South Australia? You are disappearing into the background. You will never stand up for the interests of this state against the federal Liberal government. We stood up against the federal Labor government and we will stand up against this federal Liberal government, too. The President Legislative Council The PRESIDENT: The Hon. Ms Lensink has a supplementary.
