In this dishonest scare campaign on deficit and debt—which is what it is; it is all about talking the economy down; it is not about building the economy up—the core element of hypocrisy is that the member just on his feet before, the member for North Sydney, has endorsed every dollar of the government’s deficit and debt strategy. He went out the day after the budget came down and said they would deliver a deficit and debt of $25 billion less than the government’s.
