“There was a holocaust of jobs in defence industries under members opposite.”
Prime Minister Abbott has used the word holocaust to describe the job losses in defence industries under the former Labor Government.

Mr Abbott used the line against the Opposition during Question Time on Thursday, trying to argue that his government had better defence procurement policies than the former Labor government.
"There was a holocaust of jobs in Defence industries under members opposite," he said, repeating the "holocaust of jobs".
He then apologised and withdrew the comment.
