The third big idea, the third alternative policy—we found it. The Leader of the Opposition did a doorstop where he was talking about his electric vehicle policy, and he said, 'Labor will make electric vehicles cheaper by removing the excise.' There's only one technical problem with that. There's no fuel excise on electric vehicles! That's the point. They don't use fuel; they go by electricity.

We have a Leader of the Opposition who's on training wheels.
