Julia Gillard (Lalor, Australian Labor Party, Prime Minister) Share this | Hansard source

I am delighted that the Leader of the Opposition is now indicating that at the centre of the 2013 campaign will be who can best run the economy and who can best manage the federal budget. If that is to be the contest, we will be absolutely delighted. In that contest, what we will do every step of the way is continue to bring our Labor values to the choices that we make in the government budget. We are a government that has found $130 billion for savings in order to fund Labor priorities.
