Penny Wong SA, Australian Labor Party, Minister for Foreign Affairs

I'll take the interjection from Senator Cash because one thing we know is that those opposite have never advocated for a wage increase. What we know about those opposite is that they championed a system where lower wages were a deliberate design feature of the Australian economy. That is the Liberal way—'Let's deliberately try and keep wages low.' That is the way Senator Cash and her colleagues have championed. So I think Australians will understand what you are doing here, because you have never backed higher wages for working people. (Time expired)
