yeah look i personally think that stuff as an election issue is so far down the line it would be lucky to swing a handful of voters.
its just your AM radio talkback hosts like the good Member who bring it up.

As for western sydney, these people out there now own million dollar houses, they work good jobs and have small businesses. They might have an investment property, and they are def relying on their super to fund their post work lives.
They should be Labor to their bootstraps, but Shorten gave them no reason to vote for him. Those issues i wrote earlier were aimed directly at those types of people and they bit back.
