Nothing could better demonstrate the difference of approach here between the government and the opposition. You get on with playing your little personality politics; we will get on with creating jobs and opportunity for Australians.

Yes, well while on the subject of Jobs created, please tell me, if 70,000 odd jobs are created, and the unemployment numbers stay roughly the same, doesn't that mean that 70,000 odd jobs were also lost in the same period.

Also, taking into account our population growth, wouldn't that mean that less jobs were created than either lost or never found.
