What the honourable member's party has failed to do is assist, in any way, in dealing with that, blocking savings measures proposed by the government and proposing a little bit of extra tax here and a bit of extra tax there—but adding up to $70 billion it does not do at all. The honourable member knows that full well. It does not add up to that sort of money. It does not add up to a solution that we need to address the challenges which we face, and it certainly does not provide an answer to the need that all Australians are asking for, which is: what is the government going to do, and what would an alternative Labor government do, to drive jobs and growth? All we hear from the Labor Party is the same old tired formula: more spending, more borrowing and more tax.
