I support the carbon tax. Let's be very, very clear. When you have knocked on the doors of those people you were doorknocking and you saw them walk out the front door with three or four kids, did you tell them, 'Oh, by the way, the money you're getting for those kids'—$400 here, $600 here, added up to $1,200 per family across the country as the average. You know very well, you proud wearers of that great mantle of the Liberal Party, went to the Australian community knowing that you were not going to tell them any detail.

Mrs Griggs interjecting—
