As I said, Mr Shorten, for some very strange reason, has decided to confirm, as we go towards the election, that if he is elected as Prime Minister, he will 'rule like a union boss'. Well, Mr President, that should send shivers up the spines of all Australians, because we know what union bosses are capable of doing. Union bosses misappropriate the workers' money.

Talking about misappropriation: a $20 billion blackhole, colleagues, is referred to as a rounding error. Can you imagine what a mistake is if the Labor Party makes one? If $20 billion is a rounding error, God help Australians if those on the other side are ever, ever given the opportunity to touch our books again.
