Senator Cameron's exactly right. A Labor Prime Minister is a massive risk to small, family and medium-sized businesses in this country, because, as we know, Mr Shorten—or, as someone else referred to, 'Unbelieve-a-Bill'—has tried to convince Australians, but he is not succeeding, that he is a friend of these businesses. This is someone who was dragged kicking and screaming to the table last week to support our tax cuts. Small, family and medium-sized enterprises in Australia know that Mr Shorten and Labor are no friends of theirs. The proof is quite literally in everything that those on the other side stand for. In June of this year, do you know what they did? They actually promised these businesses that they'd raise their taxes and reverse the tax cuts that we have put in place. So there is a risk, and it's a Shorten Labor government.
