My question is to the minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Wong. After 18 months of the Albanese Labor government, and as Australians end 2023, Australians are being forced to live with a worsening per capita recession. With historic collapses in productivity, which Labor's industrial relations laws are only going to make worse, and amongst the most entrenched inflation across advanced economies, life for Australians isn't easy under Mr Albanese, and it keeps getting harder. Why is Australia's economy struggling, so much more than so many counterparts right around the world, under this Labor government?
