00:00We will restore the great dream of home ownership and we will make sure that we

00:04help young Australians achieve their dream to buy a house and to raise a

00:09family and to make sure that they can afford to pay the bills and under this

00:13government that just hasn't been a reality. If Australians vote for the

00:17Liberal National parties at the next election we're going to cut the fuel tax

00:21by 25 cents a litre, we're going to give $1,200 of your money back to you, we're

00:25going to make sure that home ownership is a reality again by cutting migration, by

00:31giving tax deductibility to first home buyers, by allowing people to access

00:35their super to get their deposit together, by putting more tradies in place and by

00:40making sure that we can clean up labour's mess not just in the housing sector but

00:44across the economy. We're going to support our industries not just construction but

00:51food manufacturing and manufacturing more generally by reducing the cost of gas

00:56by 23% which will bring down the cost of construction costs and bring down the

01:01costs of food, bring down the cost of everything across the economy because

01:05the energy is the economy and we're going to do that at the same time that we make

01:09Australia a safer community and a safer place and that's particularly important

01:13here in Victoria.
