Then you have the member for Wills say that you shouldn't be blocking these tax cuts from opposition. Now the Labor Party is saying, 'We need to wait and see what the crossbenchers do in the Senate because we can only vote for this legislation if we can't oppose it as a result of what the crossbenchers do.'

We oppose these amendments from the Labor Party because we took our plan to the Australian people—we laid it out in the budget, and it was central to our campaign—and it was endorsed on 18 May. Our plan will lead to more money in the pockets of hardworking families, low- and middle-income earners. The Labor Party will always be the party of higher taxes.
