.billshortenmp: Yesterday, I thought I was being asked if we have any unannounced changes to superannuation. Obviously, we have changes we outlined three years ago. We have no proposals other than what we’ve announced previously. MORE: newsday

Labor leader Bill Shorten has been accused of lying to Australians after he ruled out any new or increased taxes on superannuation, despite previously announcing a raft of changes. Labor previously announced it was planning an overhaul of the system that will generate $34 billion in tax revenue.

Speaking to Sky News on Wednesday, Finance Minister Mathias Cormann said Mr Shorten's claim was 'manifestly untrue', because 'Labor is planning $34 billion in higher taxes on superannuation which of course comes on top of $57 billion in higher taxes targeting retirees'. Mr Shorten is expected to continue his health agenda in the West Australian seat of Swan on Wednesday, which is held by the Liberals with a margin of 3.6 per cent.

billshortenmp Good try Bill but no second chances.

billshortenmp WELL DONE Mr Shorten, accepting you got something wrong and made a mistake is commendable. We need more of this from ALL POLITICIANS. We are all human and will make mistakes, what the public hate is when politicians refuse to acknowledge they may have made a mistake and spin away

billshortenmp Omg does he think people are stupid obviously does which further proves his arrogance and lack of respect toward average Australians

billshortenmp Bills a bit young for a hearing aid, but all those noisy union rallies would be deafening of course.

billshortenmp If you can’t understand simple questions what gives you the right to lead ?

billshortenmp Jesus Christ, Bill! You have one job: DO NOT STUFF UP.

billshortenmp He's a devious little snake.

billshortenmp

billshortenmp We have no new lies, just the lies we’ve already committed to....

billshortenmp Lol

billshortenmp Bullshit billy

billshortenmp I remember a similar (oh Sh💩t ) moment from the man standing next to him. “ what is the income tax-free threshold”? Vote for the ALP at you peril.

billshortenmp Pull the other one Bill.

billshortenmp Chris Bowen looks really awkward and uncomfortable.

billshortenmp

billshortenmp Rubbish.... no idea

billshortenmp What you've announced previously doesn't go under the radar BS

billshortenmp Liar.

billshortenmp Comprehension not your strong suit then Bill? Or is it more a case of being used to not being challenged by the Canberra gallery & therefore not being able to handle the heat when you are suddenly asked to explain a policy? newsday

billshortenmp Bullshit Bill. We know where you get that name from. Self generating.bullsitbill

billshortenmp

billshortenmp The nodding heads in the background LOL

billshortenmp Twice he was asked. More bullshit from the bullshitter shorten

billshortenmp Be more critical of liberal and labor and talk about one nation you sellouts

billshortenmp Happy with Shorten's response. The question was 'new or increased taxes'. Reasonable to assume the journalist did his homework and knew that Labor's super policy has been around for many years. Lazy journalism. Can't question, Morrison, he wouldn't know a policy if one bit him

billshortenmp Shorten is a compulsive liar his going to take every dollar he can off hard working Australians and raid everyones supers and then when your dead he'll still have his hand in your pocket

billshortenmp Bill you are lowering the Div 293 tax threshold to 200k from 250k can’t you remember in your policy doc. so another bracket to tax super contributions and remember that threshold is inclusive of the super contribution so any one in this bracket another 15% on the contribution

billshortenmp If he wasn't sure of the question, why didn't he have the journalist repeat it. DUD.

billshortenmp Bowen looks as if his tiny little nuts are on an ant patch.

billshortenmp Lol. Yeah right. Bowen looking rather sus behind ya. Looking shifty as.

billshortenmp .....it’s the ease that it rolls off the tongue that should concern us

billshortenmp Bullshit !

billshortenmp What the heck will he say tomorrow? He cannot expand on any question, simply goes into a prepared spin.

billshortenmp Bill, Bill, Bill. Know you getting buggered, but.....

billshortenmp Liar.....

billshortenmp Not believable this guy. So confused. Not P M material..

billshortenmp Makes up the story on the run to suit the audience - classical union style information sharing. Cannot be trusted now or ever! LiberalAus

billshortenmp Really?

billshortenmp Maybe Backflip Bill & Labor are portraying their leader as a modern day Robin Hood

billshortenmp That is such an obvious lie and it makes me think what else he’s lying about

billshortenmp I know let’s keep the LiberalAus after all they have given us such stable government

billshortenmp Of course you did!

billshortenmp Lie lie pants on fire

billshortenmp So today you drafted in Bowen in case you stuffed up the numbers again

billshortenmp When lies catch up with you...

billshortenmp 😆😆😆😂😂

billshortenmp People are sick and tired of changes to superannuation and the government taking their hard earned savings. Shorten is will rip as much as he can out of retired people make no mistake.

billshortenmp if that’s what you “thought” he was asking how the hell do you plan to run a country?

billshortenmp Lol billshortenmp

billshortenmp BS Bill

billshortenmp Fucking lying grub!

billshortenmp Malaka

billshortenmp Ha! What a lie

billshortenmp

billshortenmp Oh, those changes 🙄

billshortenmp I would have found it very hard not to laugh out loud if I was there, lying pig!

billshortenmp Mate you fucked it right up

billshortenmp Back flip bill

billshortenmp

billshortenmp We're learning that BS doesn't do well when he's put under pressure 😁

billshortenmp And you want to be Prime Minister! Can't lie straight in bed. That's why your called Shifty Shorten. All I need is an honest Politician, which your not.

billshortenmp Bullshit.

billshortenmp Try getting perspective people auspol ausvotes libspill Liberals AusVotes2019

billshortenmp If shorten said it was raining outside.... You would nedd go check yourself

billshortenmp Announced 3 years ago - hoping everyone’s forgotten about them. Can someone ask Labor to re-state their long ago announced policy. It seems all the Libs want to bang on about is a big tax Bill- need to make it more personal

vittlesorg billshortenmp Labor actually has policies that can be criticised; but what are the Coalition's policies on anything? 'Trust' and 'The Economy' are not quite detailed enough to be called policies.

billshortenmp Slipped your mind Slippery

billshortenmp Back tracking liar
