Text
On a point of order, Mr Speaker. Is it appropriate for the Minister to make what amount to misogynistic comments in the Chamber? It is an absolute disgrace that he just distracts and attacks. It does not bother us — the people see through it — but it is an absolute disgrace for a Minister to act like that.
