I'm asked by the Deputy Leader of the Opposition, of all people, about tax policy and about consistency—the person who stood up before we had even announced our new tax policy and said: 'We will fight this legislation in the parliament. We don't even know what it will look like. We'll fight them on the beaches.' It was Churchillian. They'll fight it on the beaches until the tide changes. Then their commitments just got washed away in a week. She said, 'When this legislation hits the parliament, we will fight it, we will fight it all the way. I'm digging in along with my colleagues and our leader, Peter Dutton, to fight this fight.' They weren't just fighting it; they were fighting this fight 'really, really hard'—not just hard but really, really hard.
