It means having more opportunity for yourself and for your family. Those people opposite want to cut down the aspirations of millions of Australians, and the Leader of the Opposition calls hiking up taxes 'brave'. I call it a smash-and-grab. There is nothing brave about that. There is nothing brave about ripping off older Australians. There is nothing brave about ripping off workers—young Australians who have low-balance superannuation accounts—and there is nothing brave about the Leader of the Opposition.

We know that Australians want lower, simpler and fairer taxes. The Labor Party stands for higher taxes, and the Leader of the Opposition would deliver those. (Time expired)
