A party that opposed increases to the minimum wage for the lowest-paid workers wants to talk to us about Australians doing it tough! I mean, give us a break! This is the party that opposed our plan to ensure that we delivered energy price cost relief, which they voted against. But they want to talk to us about Australians doing it tough!

Australians must look at you and think: 'What a joke! What a joke!' You talk about the cost of living and yet you opposed every measure that we have put in place to deliver cost-of-living relief to working families.
