Prior to the last election, the Prime Minister said in relation to the stage 3 tax cuts, 'My word is my bond,' and then he and all of you kept saying, 'Our policy is clear,' as you've just said about negative gearing. Minister, the government broke its word on stage 3 tax cuts, on superannuation changes, on industry-wide employer bargaining and on its promise not to touch franking credits. It's broken its word again and again. How can anybody believe you when you now won't make a crystal-clear statement on negative gearing?
