Wayne Swan (Lilley, Australian Labor Party, Treasurer) Share this | Hansard source

This government makes absolutely no apology for putting Australian jobs and Australian growth first—absolutely no apology. It is what drove us through the global financial crisis to support employment; it is what drove us through the global financial crisis to support small business. As a consequence, the Australian economy is now 13 per cent larger than it was at the end of 2007. What we have here is a Liberal Party that is constantly at war with the facts.
