Mr SHORTEN (Maribyrnong—Leader of the Opposition) (15:00): My question is to the Prime Minister. According to his own budget papers, the Prime Minster has: 1) doubled the deficit in the last 12 months, 2) forecast the highest unemployment rate for 14 years, and 3) delivered the highest taxing government since John Howard. Why is the Prime Minister undermining the living standards of Australians now and into the future?
