My question is to the Treasurer. On 2 March last year, the Treasurer dismissed political dissenters in his own ranks by describing those who disagreed with him as 'a few political bed-wetters carrying on'. Does the Treasurer believe that those who he dismisses in this manner are working to undermine his plan to increase the GST? And does the Treasurer agree that the Australian people have a right to know about his plans to make everything cost more?
