Two years of Labor’s failed policies and wrong priorities have left Australians worse off.

In these uncertain economic times, Anthony Albanese and Jim Chalmers will fail Australians yet again unless the Budget focuses on a back to basics economic agenda that:

Today’s quarterly Consumer Price Index (CPI) data confirms Australians are paying a high price for the Albanese Labor Government’s economic mismanagement.

CPI rose sharply by 1% in the March quarter, and core inflation – the RBA’s preferred measure – remains at 4%.

Reports today that the Treasurer asked his department for advice on changes to the stage three tax cuts as early as June 2022 raises serious questions about the Albanese Labor Government’s integrity and credibility.

Today’s increase in the unemployment rate to 3.8% is another worrying sign for Australians struggling with the cost-of-living crisis under the Albanese Government.

Labor’s pitch for a Future Made In Australia (MIA) Bill is full of spin and devoid of detail.

While hardworking families and small businesses are struggling with rising costs, the Albanese Labor Government is MIA – missing in action.

As usual, the announcement of Labor’s much-hyped merger reform package presents more questions than answers.

The Coalition secured amendments in the Senate last night to protect millions of small and medium businesses, and Australia’s forestry industry, from Labor’s higher taxes.

Today’s monthly Consumer Price Index (CPI) data is a reminder of the extraordinary financial pain that hardworking Australian families are experiencing because of the Albanese Labor Government’s bad policies.

Jobs figures released today are little consolation to Australians still in the grip of a crippling cost of living crisis.

The Albanese Labor Government has finally released its Aged Care Sustainability Taskforce Report to the sector and the Opposition, but most importantly, to the older Australians and their families who have been kept in the dark on this important issue.
