My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Wong. Minister, the Leader of the Greens, Mr Bandt, was quoted yesterday listing three key demands of Labor in the event of a hung parliament. Mr Bandt said, 'In the scenario of a hung parliament, we would be pushing the next government to make big corporations pay their fair share of tax, wind back those tax breaks for wealthy property investors and deliver some relief to renters and stressed mortgage holders.' Minister, will you be upfront with all Australians and categorically rule out Labor doing deals with the Greens that result in big new taxes on Australian businesses, big new taxes on Australian homeowners and big new taxes on Australian workers?
