Senator ABETZ (Tasmania—Leader of the Government in the Senate, Minister Assisting the Prime Minister for the Public Service and Minister for Employment) (14:28): We have had the warnings from the Reserve Bank and the Parliamentary Budget Office. Labor have chosen to ignore those warnings, but can I remind them that it might be a good idea to take note of their own polling. Labor's own pollster found that 'poor economic management and a legacy of debt and deficit were key factors in Labor’s … defeat.' If Labor do not want to listen to the experts of the Reserve Bank and the budget office, so be it, but I thought they might at least want to listen to their own pollster. To make matters worse, Labor are actually opposing $5 billion dollars worth of their very own savings that they took to the last election. That is how irresponsible, that is how unfair, the Australian Labor Party is. The voters of Australia are now seeing Labor reinforcing their reputation as the economic vandals of this country.
