I do my own research e.g.

In the last trivia "debate"  Rudd accused Abbott of reducing public hospital funding by $1 billion when he served as health minister in the former Howard government.

A check produced:

Abbott was the Health Minister who presided over the implementation of the five-year Health Care Agreements funding deals within  the Howard Government which actually increased federal public hospital funding from $7.1 billion in 2002-03 to $9.8 billion in 2007-08.

Whoops, liar liar Rudd's pants on fire.
