Thank you, Speaker. I direct the member to ask that question of his frontbench. The fact they have not shared their policy with him yet is not my problem. This is a plan that will increase taxes on people in places like Western Sydney in order to fund white elephant infrastructure projects that have not yet even been conceived. As a result of this policy, we will see gold-plated footpaths in Karratha while people are stuck in traffic gridlock in places like Western Sydney. They talk about real solutions but, I tell you what, if you ever get to see their policies, you will see they have got nothing but real problems for the Australian people.
