I congratulate the member for Lindsay for bringing this motion on interest rates before the House. It is one of the most important motions we could debate in this chamber because inflation, interest rates and the threat that they pose to working families are the greatest challenges that confront this government at this time. It is with deep concern that I hear from the member for Stirling that he still thinks Australians have never been better off. The fact is that inflation is the great menace.
