Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Given that the government has previously claimed more than $40 billion in new Labor Party taxes as ‘savings’, can an $11 billion-plus carbon tax in 2012-13 really be classified as a budget saving or as what it is: a great big new tax on everything?
