"We will continue to support our scientists in their work, we will invest in the research and the clinical trials. "There's always a lot of talk about tax from those opposite, but here is the simple truth: 6.4 million working people will pay the same amount of income tax under Labor as the Liberals.Treasurer Josh Frydenberg's first Budget included billions of dollars for tax cuts, major road upgrades and health care.

Bullocks.

People will receive better cares, at the same time create more jobs in health industry, helping to boost national economy. Well done, Bill Shorten. Big thinker you are!

Making batteries...nation building Utopia

Bill is like Obama tell the people what they want to hear just to shut them up and get their vote. I seriously DO NOT TRUST BILL/LABOR

Where is Bill getting all this money from he keeps promising? He hasn't said where it's coming from

1 step forward, 2 steps back. That’s why our economy is going nowhere 😡

Over confident people crash & burn, he’s going to be famous for the wrong reasons for 200-300 years

Chap doesn't have a clue.

big boy bill is taking you all for a long ride

....did he match my tax rate with the private cayman islands corporation that supplies my electricity .... 0%

Every time Labor is in government it`s spend, spend, spend. Then it is left up to the next LNP government to claw back the deficit into the black. Each and every cycle the surplus quickly gets eroded by Labor`s pre-election airy-fairy promises. Sad part is that folk believe them.

Exactly how are all these promises going to be paid for billshortenmp
