Thank you, Senator Polley—someone I know is very interested in ensuring that Australians have secure jobs and better pay, along with every other senator over here. What a shame we couldn't find one senator over on that side of the chamber.
No, you can't put up your hand for that one, Senator Cash. You're not about secure jobs and better pay. You're not about that. And Senator Cash, you'll be very pleased to know that the Albanese government has delivered today's ABS labour force figures, which show that the unemployment rate remained at historic lows of 3.7 per cent.
