Yes, they did but with no help from you. Just to be clear, Senator O'Sullivan, you fought against all of those things. You didn't get them up. We did get those things up, but you fought against each and every one of those things. For that, you should be ashamed of yourselves.

We are making a fundamental difference to the cost of living for people on the ground. We know people are doing it tough, and our plan is showing success. Our plan is showing that we can do this. We have brought inflation down from the over six per cent that you had it at to under three per cent, and yet you stand there and say that we're boosting inflation. We are not. We are bringing it down, and that is a fact. It is fact you don't like. It is a fact that you keep perpetuating against out there, and it is just bunkum.
