Senator WONG (South Australia—Minister for Foreign Affairs and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:04): This from the former shadow finance minister whose legacy would have been more debt, higher deficits and higher taxes! I mean, really, Senator Hume! For you to ask a question on that when you are—and I invite you to read the election review, because I would remind you that the policy you are personally responsible for— The PRESIDENT: Minister Wong, please resume your seat. Senator Hume? Senator Hume: It's a point of order on relevance. The question was about the cost-of-living crisis under Labor's homegrown inflation. The PRESIDENT: Minister Wong, I will draw you back to Senator Hume's question. Senator WONG: With respect, Senator Hume, you raised the issue of government spending and you are making an assertion about government spending. There are a couple of responses to that. The first is that we invite you to tell us what you would cut. We invite you to do that. Secondly, if you cared so much about government spending, Senator Hume, why did you go to an election with higher deficits and higher debt? Why would you? (Time expired) Senator Hume interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order! Senator Hume, before I call you feel you for your second supplementary, I do need to hear the minister, and you were yelling more loudly than the minister. A second supplementary?
