My question is to the Prime Minister. This morning, less than 24 hours after delivering the budget, the government caved in to Labor pressure and backflipped on energy payments for thousands of vulnerable Australians, blowing an $80 million black hole in the budget. Prime Minister, doesn't this just confirm, after six years of cuts and chaos, that this budget is nothing but a con that has already fallen apart?
