Highly unlikely. I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate those opposite for one of the most spectacular backflips I've seen in my time in this place. But, when we cut through all of the political games, the grandstanding and the carrying on that we've seen over the last couple of weeks, the final decision on the Albanese Labor government's tax cuts was absolutely the right call to make, one that is in the best interests of Australians.
Let's just remind ourselves exactly what this decision means for a moment. We're talking about a tax cut that is fairer. We're talking about a tax cut which benefits many more Australians than would have benefited under the previous government's tax cuts.
Honourable senators interjecting—
I commend my colleagues over there for playing a little bit of tax bingo. Well done.
