Anthony Albanese (Grayndler, Australian Labor Party, Prime Minister) Share this | Hansard source

I thank the Leader of the Opposition, and I welcome him back to the playing field. He was the Neale Fraser of the opposition, the non-playing captain, just observing the team. But today he is back, and that is a very good thing.

We inherited, as the Leader of the Opposition is aware, a circumstance where we had the Russian invasion of Ukraine and we also had supply chain issues. That's something that was identified, indeed, by the Leader of the Opposition. So I refer the Leader of the Opposition to his own comments about supply chain issues and the impact they were having on inflation and also to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
