Apprentice chippies, joiners, bricklayers, plumbers, and sparkies like Matt rely on their cars for work - that's why we made rego free for eligible apprentices. This is real help with the cost of living.

Australia is well placed and well prepared to deal with the uncertainty we see in the global economy because of the progress that we’ve made together over the course of the past three years. We've got inflation down substantially, real wages are up, unemployment is low, we've…

Inflation is down. Wages are up. Interest rates have started to fall. Thanks to the hard work of Australians, we're headed in the right direction.

This is not a time for cutting and wrecking, for thinking small, punching down, aiming low or looking back. This is a time for building.

Jim Chalmers says “no matter what Peter Dutton tries to say today…the Coalition is about 3 things. Higher taxes for every worker, secret cuts to pay for Nuclear reactors, and no ongoing cost of living relief. That’s what they’re on about. That’s the difference.”💥#auspol

So @PeterDutton_MP just lied Under the LNP Australia would already have had gross debt of: * $1.05 trillion in 23-24 * $1.12 trillion in 24-25 * $1.17 trillion in 25-26 This was confirmed in the independent 2022 #PEEFO

Poor @PeterDutton_MP upset that we delivered only 2 surpluses. Worse apparently than the 9 they missed out delivering.

The Coalition has been crystal clear that they do not support free TAFE, and that it will be cut should Peter Dutton become Prime Minister. Tonight’s budget reply confirmed it, with no commitment to funding further free TAFE places. Cutting free TAFE would be devastating for…

Angus Taylor has just confirmed he’ll introduce legislation to raise income taxes on every Australian taxpayer, if they win the election. This means under Peter Dutton and the Coalition, Australians will earn less and keep less of what they earn. You’ll be worse off under…

Jim Chalmers calls out Angus Taylor for a brain snap in voting against a tax cut but then complaining about cost of living in a question to Albanese. "that's why they're all looking at their phones & shoes because they know once again he's been found out and found wanting" #qt

We’ve made a lot of progress together as Australians and our economy is now turning a corner, but there’s more to do. This election will be a choice between @AlboMP and @AustralianLabor helping you with the cost of living, strengthening Medicare, and Building Australia’s Future…

In his budget reply @PeterDutton_MP complains that in 3 years of government Labor delivered ‘just 2’ budget surpluses. In 9 years of government how many did Liberals deliver? ZERO. None. Despite promising a surplus in their 1st budget and every budget after. #Auspol2025 #Budget25

Our budget delivers cost-of-living relief and invests in Australia’s future. Peter Dutton’s plan? $350 billion in cuts with no details of where they’ll come from.
