The Albanese Government’s cruel approach to cost-of-living relief was on display in Canberra last week in an ugly and unexpected final sitting week.

How on earth can a struggling regional aged care provider apply for funding today, the day the initiative was announced, pulling together all their supporting information and material, for funding they desperately need for survival?

“Tonight, in the Coalition’s Budget In Reply speech, Peter Dutton will announce an elected Dutton-Littleproud Coalition Government will provide a 50 per cent cut per-litre to fuel excise for 12 months.

Under Labor, income taxes are up over 25 per cent. As this engorged government feasts on your income, using it to spend on largesse that exacerbates the cost-of-living crisis, Labor tosses Australians a daily morsel of their tax back.
