Education Funding

I can give you a very specific answer to that. It has got to do with state Liberal cutbacks to education, because of the way in which indexation works for Australian schools. The fact that the opposition frontbench and backbench are tossing their heads at this shows a decade of indifference when they were in government and have never bothered once to understand how schools are funded. The Leader of the Opposition runs out the door and says that he stands behind this broken model of school funding. Premier O'Farrell said that it is a broken model. He has never understood the details of it. The Leader of the Opposition ought to try to understand.
