Australians expect their government to be focused on them, on the cost of living, on secure work and on the services people rely on every day. That is exactly what the Albanese Labor government is doing. We are governing with purpose. We are delivering cost-of-living relief through cheaper child care, cheaper medicines and tax cuts for every taxpayer, not just those at the top. We are strengthening Medicare, investing in public schools and rebuilding TAFE so people can train for real jobs in a changing economy. We are focused on wages, on job security and on building homes Australia needs, because you cannot fix a housing crisis without building more homes and you cannot build them without skilled workers. That is the difference.

While Australia is focused on governing, those opposite are focused on themselves, on internal divisions, on leadership games, on settling scores and protecting their own positions rather than delivering outcomes for the community. They had a decade to act and left Australians with stagnant wages, rising costs and neglected services. Now, instead of taking responsibility, they offer blame, slogans and distractions. To the member for Hastie—

The member for Canning.

The member for Canning—after raiding the member for Goldstein's library for The Art of War, might I suggest The Prince? It is at least a reminder that effective leadership is about governing well and not seeking to posture. We are focused on Australians. (Time expired)

I remind all members to use the correct titles. In accordance with standing order 43, the time for members' statements has concluded.
