My question is to the Prime Minister. A single mother with six children in Queensland has been hit with a $1,500 electricity bill, much of which is due to the mother's need to charge her NDIS-supported daughter's electric wheelchair. Given a worker at the mother's electricity company told this struggling single mother she will probably be paying her bill 'for the rest of her life', will the Prime Minister immediately apologise to this family for promising them a $275 annual cut to their power bill? Why do Australian families always pay more under Labor?
