How is it fair to sell out low-paid workers at Clean Event and trade away their penalty rates? How is it fair to promise parents of disabled children that there is a National Disability Insurance Scheme and never fund it? How is it fair to go to an election with a financial plan that involved flinging $16½ billion of additional deficits and debt on the shoulders of Australians? The Labor Party has no concept of fairness. This is the party that claimed to be in favour of needs based funding. So eloquent was the Leader of the Opposition! He said only today, 'For me it's not about, in education, the government system or the non-government system; I believe in a sector-neutral approach which prioritises needs based funding,' and yet he delivered exactly the reverse.
