NOPE they dont, its just as usual all Labor/Greens/left hot air and scare tactic
From the ABC FACT CHECK
The verdict
The Abbott Government claimed in the budget it would achieve $80 billion in "savings" over 10 years by changing funding for schools and hospitals. That figure assumes the Coalition will spend less than Labor's policies would have cost.
Labor never produced a 10-year plan for hospitals, although there were some long term funding projections for schools. As Mr Abbott said, "there was no $80 billion in any Labor budget to be cut". This contradicts the claim in his budget papers of $80 billion in savings.
The Government did not cut $80 billion from schools and hospitals in this four-year budget period. By trumpeting long term savings, it has left itself open to accusations of funding cuts from Labor.
Neither the Abbott Government nor the Labor Opposition can accurately predict the costs of hospital or school funding 10 years out.
There is too much uncertainty for this long-term estimate to be used as a reliable measure for cuts or savings.
The debate over the $80 billion figure - whether a cut or a saving - is hot air.
Solved! Go to Solution.

lol. Never let the facts get in the way of a good puffed up rant from the Greens and Labor.
Every day we see Milne and her munchkins cry a river over all their blackmailed policies they forced Labor to implement, going down the gurgler.
Fact Check: This government was not elected in a landslide to keep the failed policies of the labor/green marriage: and that's a fact.

Support for the coalition continues to drop, with the latest poll putting the Abbott government is now 10 points below its election-winning vote.
The Newspoll, published in The Australian on Tuesday, puts Labor ahead of the coalition 55-45 per cent in the two-party preferred vote, a drop of two points for the coalition since the previous poll two weeks ago.
Voter dissatisfaction with Tony Abbott has reached the highest level since he became prime minister, 62 per cent.
