I want to speak about the cost-of-living crisis that all Australians are enduring under this Labor government. Yesterday, as the Reserve Bank raised interest rates for the 10th consecutive time, Labor was busy breaking promises and announcing new taxes. Instead of working with the Reserve Bank to bring down inflation, the government is putting all its energy into breaking election promises and taxing Australians more.

In my travels up and down the coast of Queensland over the last week, people wanted to know: what is Labor doing about the cost of living?
