Federal Opposition Leader Bill Shorten gave a speech at the National Press Club on 28 June 2016. He warned that the Coalition’s policies will lead to the social discontent that has led to the UK’s vote to leave the European Union and the popularity of US presidential candidate Donald Trump. In particular, Shorten noted the Coalition’s plan to progressively scale back the company tax rate while reducing funding for health, education and welfare services. He added that the political and economic lesson from "Brexit" must not be ignored.
