Chris Bowen (McMahon, Australian Labor Party, Shadow Treasurer) Share this | Hansard source

And the Treasurer does not know either. We see this Prime Minister, who has been uncharitably called the 'Kirribilli hillbilly', wandering around saying whatever springs into his mouth next. It is actually more important than that when you are the Prime Minister or the Treasurer of Australia, because you have a responsibility. You have a responsibility to care about what you say and what you do. That responsibility, when it comes to the Prime Minister and the Treasurer, should be carried out with the hopes and aspirations of Australians for a strong economy in mind, one with reducing unemployment, not increasing unemployment. We see nothing like that from this Prime Minister or this Treasurer.
