Andrew Giles (Scullin, Australian Labor Party, Minister for Skills and Training) | Hansard source

I was telling the House about Caitlin's response and Poppy's response and the response of 25,000 Australians. Your response, Leader of the Opposition, is always to talk Australians down and always to divide communities. You can't even say the word 'TAFE'. You don't support free TAFE, which has seen 742,000 enrolments in just the three years. But tell us, Leader of the Opposition: do you support the Key Apprenticeship Program and what it is delivering to Australian apprentices, or do you agree with your shadow minister, who said the program is 'wrong' and 'throwing good money after bad money'? Small businesses and Australians deserve to know. The Albanese government backs small businesses, and we back apprentices like Poppy, whereas all of the right-wing parties over there are always talking Australians down while we're backing Australians to get a trade to build more homes for Australians.
