My question is to the Prime Minister. Can the Prime Minister confirm that, as well as cutting real wages over the next four years, his government has also refused to back an increase to the minimum wage, has cut penalty rates and has also intervened in a High Court case to rip away pay from long-term workers in insecure work? How do you rack up $1 trillion of debt yet still be so determined to cut workers' wages?
