is it's not the only thing we are doing to make our education system better and fairer, because there's also legislation in the parliament at the moment to invest an extra $3½ billion into our system to help more kids get a crack at going to university and, in particular, to help more kids from poor families, from the bush and from the regions to get a crack at going to university—something that the Liberal Party has just said they think is 'socialism'. I actually think it's fairness, and I hope that my friends in the National Party whose kids in their communities will agree, will do what they always do when they think the Liberal Party gets it wrong—that is, roll them and vote for legislation that will help kids from the bush.
