Scott Morrison (Cook, Liberal Party, Prime Minister) Share this | Hansard source

got one step closer—this leader of the Labor Party, who thinks that his vision of Australia and his version of leadership is to divide Australians on one side and the other, into winners and into losers: into those who employ and those who turn up and work for wages; between parents who want to send their kids to an independent school and parents who want to send their kids to a state school? The Leader of the Opposition only has a plan to divide this country for his own political interests and purposes.

Our government has a plan to keep our economy strong; to ensure that we can guarantee the essential services that Australians rely on; and to take the difficult decisions to keep Australians safe, whether it's in the playground, or overseas or on our borders. We have the record for achieving that; it's our plan and it's our record as a government that we are keeping Australians together. That's the plan that Australians can vote for in Wentworth on Saturday.

A vote for anyone other than the Liberal candidate puts the wrecker, the leader of the Labor Party, one step closer to taxing you more, slowing our economy, making you less safe and driving Australians apart.
