Mr ALBANESE (Grayndler—Prime Minister) (14:31): I thank the member for her question. And she asked a question about the commitment that we had at the WA election launch, there at Optus Stadium, on the shared equity scheme. It's a shared equity scheme— Opposition members interject ing— The SPEAKER: Order! Members on my left. Mr ALBANESE: based upon the WA model. It's one that the Perrottet government was implementing in New South Wales. Mr Pasin interjecting— The SPEAKER: Order! The member for Barker is warned. If he interjects one more time, I promise I'll— Mr ALBANESE: The Andrews government in Victoria— The SPEAKER: Just pause. The continual interjection by the member for Barker, every single day, is not— An honour able member interjecting— The SPEAKER: Order!—helpful or respectful at all. If it continues once more today, he'll be asked to leave. Mr ALBANESE: The member suggests, somehow, that, when the Liberals are in government, people don't pay more. But the fact is that the peak of inflation, in terms of the largest ever jump in any quarter this century, was in March 2022, and the jump was 2.1 per cent. The fact is also that the Abbott, Turnbull and Morrison government was the second highest taxing government in modern Australian economic history. The highest, of course, was the Howard government. Mr Hamilton interjecting— The SPEAKER: The member for Groom. Mr ALBANESE: The fact is that interest rates, when this man was the Assistant Treasurer— Mr Hamilton interjecting— The SPEAKER: The member for Groom will cease interjecting. Mr ALBANESE: were 6.75 per cent, which is higher than 3.6 per cent—6.75 compared with 3.6. And the fact is that the budget papers accompanying Josh Frydenberg's final budget confirmed not just that there were no surpluses over the forwards. Instead, the coalition was on track to rack up $224 billion in additional borrowings over four years, and the Intergenerational Report produced by them showed that no budget would be in surplus in any year between now and 2060. That's in spite of the fact that, in the lead-up to the election in which they attained office in 2013, the then shadow treasurer and the then Liberal Party said they would have surpluses each and every year, going forward. They never delivered. They stopped the 30 years of consecutive economic growth thanks to the Hawke-Keating economic reforms. The fact is that those opposite talk a big game but they never ever deliver.
