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

Labor are for higher taxes, and I'll tell you why: it's because they don't know how to control spending either. They went to the 2016 election and were not voted in because their deficits were too big. At the 2019 election, they were not voted in because their taxes were too big. The reason is consistent: Labor cannot manage money. That means Labor will always be for higher taxes and bigger deficits. That's why they cannot be trusted with the management of our economy, and that's why Australians who depend on the essential services that depend on a stronger economy can never rely on Labor.
