I'll tell you what we're advocating, Senator Macdonald. We're advocating for fairness and decency in this country. We're advocating for a government that is a stable government. We're advocating for a government that can stand up and deliver for the working class of this country. That is something that you have never done and that the coalition has never done. Cast your mind back to when this government came in. They had their first budget in 2014-15, and their big economic argument then was that they would be increasing the GST. That's what they did. They said, 'We'll increase the GST.' Who suffers from that? It's working families.
