Deputy Premier John Barilaro apologises for 'effing disgrace' remark

NSW Deputy Premier John Barilaro has been forced to apologise after he labelled Labor an "effing disgrace" and called an MP "racist" during question time in Parliament on Wednesday.

Labor MP Ryan Park, manager of opposition business in the chamber, said Mr Barilaro's remarks "crossed many many lines".Credit:"Mr Barilaro holds one of the highest offices in NSW, in fact one of the highest offices in this country," Mr Park said on Wednesday."He lacks the discipline for the job. He lacks the temperament for the job. Quite clearly, he shouldn't be doing the job.

"You guys are an effing disgrace," Mr Barilaro yelled towards the Labor MPs, triggering howls of protests from the opposition benches.Speaker Jonathan O'Dea, who was repeatedly forced to call the chamber to order, said he did not hear the offending remark due to the noise, but urged the Deputy Premier to withdraw it.Mr Barilaro repeated the comment onto the record, but insisted "effing" was not offensive and refused to withdraw it.

"If you allow this to stand, Mr Speaker, your pledge of improving the standards of this place is hollow," Mr Daley said.Seizing on Mr Daley's objection, Liberal Minister Andrew Constance, the leader of the House, accused Labor of deliberately attempting to "disrupt the House" and"We are not going to take a lecture from a bloke who hasn't withdrawn his comments about Asians with PhDs taking our kids jobs," Mr Constance said.

LisaVisentin This is typical of him grandstanding to try stay relevant and authoritative. He does this sort of thing on purpose

LisaVisentin Yes, the effing was a bit rogue..but the rest..spot on!! Biggest bunch of losers since Bob Brown's caravan to FNQ!! How is it these Greens can match causes to the public teat so skillfully? Would not work in an iron lung, the lot of them!!
