Mr ABBOTT (Warringah—Prime Minister) (14:30): The people of Australia elected this government to tackle Labor's debt and deficit disaster. That is exactly what we are doing. We are tackling Labor's debt and deficit disaster, and one of the reasons why there is a debt and deficit disaster which this government has to handle is that members opposite persisted in unaffordable spending sustained by borrowed money. Mr Dreyfus interjecting— The SPEAKER: I remind the member for Isaacs that he is warned! Mr ABBOTT: I accept that there are some payments that were made by the former government which are not going to be continued by this government. I absolutely accept that. We were up-front pre-election that there were payments that would not be paid by this government that had been paid by the previous government. The point we made again, again and again is that the Australian government cannot continue to live beyond its means. It did live beyond its means under members opposite. That is why members opposite intended to saddle our children and our grandchildren with unsustainable debt, with debt and deficit stretching out as far as the eye can see. That will end under this government. The SPEAKER: The Prime Minister will resume his seat. The member for Jagajaga on a point of order—which is not simply repeating the question. Ms Macklin: No, I have no intention of repeating the question, Madam Speaker, I am just going to tell the Prime Minister this was a Howard government— The SPEAKER: The member will resume her seat! The member will resume her seat immediately! The member for Jagajaga has already been warned. She knows that was a breach of the use of standing orders and will remove herself under standing order 94(a). The member for Jagajaga then left the chamber.
