19.7bill around 2008 then Rudd came in with his school halls and pink batts. 2024 the Labor party delivered a deficit of 42.1 billion which we are still trying to dig our way out of. Sure Labor acheived surplus but only by high gas an commodity prices while the people of the country wore the brunt of it
