I'm interested in the jobs of Australians. That's what I'm interested in. The Leader of the Opposition is clearly only interested in his own job, because all he wants to do is have a talkfest in this place. I'm interested in the jobs of Australians and taking action to ensure Australians are in work.

More and more Australians are in work, and more Australians are in work today as a share of the Australian population than at any other time in Australia's history. The Leader of the Opposition may think that this place and the chatter that goes on here is terribly important to him and his position, but I'm going to remain focused on those Australians who simply want us to get on with the job of ensuring that we're providing the stable, the calm and the responsible financial management which has brought the budget back into surplus.
