My question is to the Prime Minister. Last week, the RBA said:

… Public demand is forecast to be stronger than previously expected, reflecting recent public spending announcements by federal and state and territory governments …

The Prime Minister dismissed this, claiming, 'That's not what they've said.' Why is the Prime Minister in denial that Labor's spending is causing homegrown inflation and keeping interest rates higher for longer?
