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

didn't do anything, despite the pleas of those in his electorate and despite everything he said he needed to do on Western Sydney international airport. He was transport minister for six years. He couldn't get a runway. He couldn't get lift-off. He couldn't even get himself out there to actually make the project happen. So I'm not going to take a lecture from the Labor Party, when this government has been delivering the jobs on the ground—the 1½ million jobs that were created before we came into the COVID-19 recession—and saving 700,000 jobs through the economic supports we put in place during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Australian people know because they have seen this government get on with the job. They've seen us deliver on the ground. This desperate Leader of the Opposition can crow and carry on all he likes, but the Australian people have worked him out and those behind him have worked him out.
