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

On all these counts we have been successful in meeting our commitments to the Australian people. That is in stark contrast to what happened back in 2007 when the people of Australia chose to go on a different path and elect a Labor government. And I can tell you that the decision they made in 2007 they have paid for for a decade because of the fiscal recklessness of the former Labor Party. We have stopped the boats and we have ensured they have remained stopped. But the Labor Party have still learnt none of the lessons of their failures in border protection when they were in office. Only a few months ago they came into this place and voted to weaken our borders.
