We know what those opposite want to do. They want to cut Medicare. They want to cut payments to people. They want to cut pensions. They want to cut the Public Service. Nothing has changed from the shambles of an opposition that went to the last election. They keep going on about out-of-control spending; what they don't say is Medicare, pensions and payments will all be cut if they ever get back into government again. This government takes a responsible approach and will continue to do so.
