The question was:

Will the Treasurer finally admit his out-of-control spending is driving up inflation and interest rates?

Before we got to that part of the question, there was a quote and there was a comparison.

Okay, Leader of the Opposition. We're just trying to deal with this. It was a very broad question, with the preamble in there and with, let's call it, 'colour and movement' in the early part of the question. If there's that kind of commentary in any question, there's going to be some pretty colour and movement with the answer as well.
