Angus on Insiders - Did anyone else choke on their cornflakes ?, page-389

Treasurer Jim Chalmers says Shadow Treasurer Angus Taylor's argument appears to be anybody could deliver a surplus "except the Liberals in office"

"They (Liberals) had nine cracks at this and went none for nine - they promised a surplus in their first year and every year thereafter and didn't deliver a single one," Mr Chalmers



"Based on the numbers published today we will deliver a surplus in our first year and every year after that"
