Thank you, Mr Speaker. I think that it's made clear by those opposite that, while they have form on this, they now seem to be signalling that they want to cut the pension again. We all know that when those opposite start talking about cutting unrestrained spending they mean cuts to pensions and other support payments. This is unacceptable. The Leader of the Opposition has to come clean with the Australian people. (Time expired)
