It hurts, doesn’t it? It hurts the opposition that that is the reality you are experiencing. The other really positive outcome of this budget is the establishment of three funds: the $20 billion Building Australia Fund, the $11 billion Education Investment Fund and the $10 billion Health and Hospitals Fund. We are about nation building. We are about building for the future and responsible economic management. Later this week we will see a sod turned on the Mulgrave River bridge, and there will be other projects that go on from that because we are putting in place real funds, and there will be nation building into the future. This has been a responsible budget. It delivers for my local community and delivers for families, seniors and people doing it tough all across Australia. (Time expired)
