The truth is that those opposite really lose it when you speak about paying workers properly. Whether it's aged-care workers, early educators or people on the minimum wage, whenever you speak about rising wages—and we have had real wages increase for four quarters in a row—they start yelling and shouting because they don't like it. We know that early educators shape lives and change lives. We need to do more than just thank them. We need to make sure they are properly valued and fairly paid. This is a win for workers, a win for families and a win for our littlest Australians as well. This government is turning promises into progress. (Time expired)
