My question is to the Prime Minister. Last night every member of his government voted against Labor's personal income tax plan that will give more than 10 million Australians almost double the tax cut they will get from the government next year. Why did the Prime Minister vote against lower taxes for 10 million Australians, or a tax cut of up to $928 a year? Why didn't this Prime Minister vote for lower taxes for 10 million Australian workers, instead of giving an $80 billion big business tax giveaway?
