This is the wont with all Labor questions; they are nearly always built on a supposition that is false and incorrect. I say to you, Senator Sterle—through you, Mr President—there is no breach of promise in relation to this matter. What I would simply remind Senator Sterle is that the legacy you have left these young Western Australians is a legacy of debt and joblessness, which we are trying to overcome through measures which you are deliberately blocking in this Senate because you do not want to see the recovery occurring, you do not want Western Australians to see the juxtaposition between your economic mismanagement and our plan for the future that will provide jobs, that will provide a future. That is what we are doing with our economic management.
