From the outset, I have to say that I have never heard so much nonsense and rubbish in all my life. In saying that, I have to also say that we hardly need a lesson from the Australian Labor Party about the abrogation of economic responsibility. The last time the Australian Labor Party were in office, they abrogated economic responsibility unbelievably. We had one million people unemployed. You talk about support for small business. The last time the Labor Party were in office, the best they did for small business was 22 per cent on overdrafts.
