There are lots of words in this question, so we'll see how we go and whether we get an answer. When the second Albanese budget was handed down, economists criticised it as being an expansionary budget that would keep inflation higher for longer. For months, Labor denied its budget would keep inflation higher for longer. Yet now the Treasurer and finance minister repeatedly state that inflation is staying higher for longer. Weren't the experts right in their critique of your budget? The Albanese government clearly botched its budget. (Time expired)
