Whether she means the federal government or the state government, it is hypocritical.
Does Senator Polley and her party not know the federal budget is subjected to a horrendous debt left behind by her party and probably the largest debt in Australia's history?
Imagine how her party would have handled Kevin Rudd's debt, and how our economy would have finished up.
Yes, it is a very tough budget, but the government had no choice if it is to reduce the debt.
If she is referring to the state government, it is still hypocritical if what we are starting to hear from the media is right.
