Oh look; they're having a great laugh about paid parental leave. This fits right in with the shadow minister's proposition. The shadow minister says they should do a rebranding exercise. They're going to get Scotty from marketing back! He's going to ask modern Liberals where the hell they are! They don't get paid parental leave. They don't get it. They don't want it.

On this side, we support higher wages for working families. We support lower taxes for working families. We support stronger Medicare for working families. We support better schools and free TAFE and cheaper university for working families. We support higher family tax benefit and we support more and better paid parental leave.
