Dr DUNCAN WEBB (Labour—Christchurch Central): That was a classic National Party speech, which is, "Cut spending. Let's think about the taxpayers of today and tomorrow,"—and I do. I think about the people who pay tax in New Zealand and every other New Zealander, and I think about the steps that we've taken over the past two years and the fact that we have saved thousands and thousands of lives and thousands and thousands of jobs. We're in the position we're in because we didn't slash and cut spending like the National Party would. We didn't throw open the doors to business; we supported businesses through a careful and planned approach, and we saved jobs and businesses accordingly, and our tax base was preserved. And that's why, when we look forward now, we're in a much better position that we ever would have been.
