My question is to the Prime Minister. On 30 of March 2021 the Prime Minister said, 'We won't have any changes to the franking credits regime.' Why has the Prime Minister misled the Australian people? Isn't this yet another broken promise from a tricky prime minister?

The Treasurer's been waiting patiently there since last November to get a single question. It's now March. It was his birthday last week—on the same day! Give him a question. That's all he asks!

The Prime Minister will return to the question.

I would have thought that the shadow Treasurer might have asked a question about super. He's had a lot to say about super.

But apparently not. He's just picked another argument with himself, but he picked an argument with himself accidentally last week, as well, for the entire week. At last, a fair fight: a fight between the shadow Treasurer and the shadow Treasurer! I think they've only got one now. Angus versus Angus: a true battle of the lightweights!
