HOW CAN YOU CUT SOMETHING THAT NEVER EXISTED?

During Question Time today the Prime Minister asked ‘how can you cut something that never existed’?

The Prime Minister’s own budget papers show there is an $80 billion cut to schools and hospitals.

Indeed the health policy the Coalition took the last election promised to find ’50 per cent growth funding of the efficient price of hospital services’.  

The $80 billion was included in Labor’s last Budget, it was promised by the Coalition before the last election, and it was cut by Tony Abbott in his first Budget.

Furthermore, Labor’s last Budget showed precisely what funding commitment was in place.

This commitment was shared by Tony Abbott until he cut $80 billion from schools and hospitals in his first Budget.  

When it comes to healthcare, Australians are being let down by the most uncompassionate government since Federation, led by the most ineffective health minister Australia has ever had.
