But what do they choose? They choose to stand up for people buying luxury cars but not for lower interest rates for working families. That is where they are. They choose to stand up for particular oil companies instead of standing up for Australian families who need lower interest rates and critical investment in education and infrastructure. That is where they are. They are not with the working families of Australia who are getting the tax cuts that they made them wait years and years and years for. They are out there defending the alcohol industry, they are out there defending the luxury car industry and they are out there defending windfall profits for oil companies. We know whose side they are on, and it is not the Australian people’s.
