My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer her to the $4 billion difference between revenue and spending entailed in her carbon tax and the $6 billion difference between revenue and spending in her mining tax. How is it that her government could introduce two great big new taxes and still leave the budget with a $10 billion black hole? Why should Australians have any faith in her deceptive, dysfunctional and directionless government that governs for vested interests through secret deals and special arrangements negotiated outside cabinet and passed through this parliament in the dead of night?
