Fran Bailey (McEwen, Liberal Party, Minister for Small Business and Tourism) Share this | Hansard source

Small business is very concerned not just about the Leader of the Opposition but about the entire policy of the opposition because it knows that every single one of those sitting opposite will do the bidding of the unions before they will ever consider the needs and aspirations of small business people. Small business understands that the opposition’s alternative is to reinstate unfair dismissal and to get rid of AWAs. Small business does not want the clock wound back to the 1970s alternative. It understands that the Howard government has delivered and will continue to deliver in future.
