The quotes are different, but the approach is the same. Less money going into super today means much less money in retirement. Our approach to the cost of living is different—tax cuts for every taxpayer, delivered five different ways, pay rises for minimum wage earners and award wage workers, cutting student debt by 20 per cent and making medicines cheaper. The Liberals and Nationals have spent years attacking super while opposing cost-of-living relief, and now One Nation has joined in. On this side of the House, we believe in something very different. Labor has built superannuation, we have strengthened it and we will defend it.
