My question is to the Prime Minister. In 2012 the Prime Minister told the national RSL conference:

If it’s inadequate just to lift Centrelink pensions by the Consumer Price Index, it’s even less fair to apply solely that index to those who have risked their lives for our country. Loyalty goes both ways.

Why is the Prime Minister breaking his promise not to change pensions, by applying the consumer price index to the pensions of 140,463 veterans?
