This Thursday is the day that those opposite have to put their cards on the table. This Thursday is the day that you've got to come clean. And this Thursday is the day that you've got to level with the Australian people. Will those opposite vote down a tax cut for working Australians again? Will those opposite vote against the interests of young people who want to get into the housing market again? Will they vote against what Australians know needs to happen in this country?
Everywhere I go in my local electorate on Brisbane's south side, people know that the interaction with the housing market and the taxation system is broken, and we on this side of the chamber choose to do something about it. The Albanese Labor government is focused on delivering. It is focused on delivering cost-of-living relief. It is focused on making sure that the young people of this nation can once again have that Australian dream of being able to get into a home.
We know those opposite have form when it comes to diddling the Australian people. Students would've had 20 per cent more debt, apprentices would've been paying fees for TAFE, and millions of Australians would've been paying more taxes. We believe that young people in this country should get a fair crack.
