I am nearly out of time, so all I will do is point to the member for McMahon, the shadow Treasurer, whose MPI this is. The member for McMahon said that the peak of the Labor Party debt would be nine per cent of GDP. Only two years later it peaked at 22.1 per cent, yet the shadow Treasurer has the gall to come into this place and put this MPI before us today. Debt and deficit is your record. We will clean up your mess and we will get the budget back in surplus. We will bring debt down. You should get out of the way and allow us to do it.
