I've spoken a lot about what we're doing and our government's response to the DSR, and I would compare this with the record of the opposition when it comes to defence industry policy. I think that's what those opposite who are interjecting want me to do. They were all talk and absolutely no action. They were all talk and no walk. They were all hat and no cattle. They were all red carpet and Top Gun music, but, when it came to actually delivering defence capability, we knew they really weren't up to it. The Morrison government's investment in defence saw key projects blow out in both cost and time, but we're fixing the mess created by the coalition.
