From 1 July, Labor's tax cuts will see families with children pocket an average of more than $3,000 next financial year—an extra $60 a week in their pockets—to help with the cost of living. Across all households, the average tax cuts will be more than $2,000 under Labor's plan. That's more than $40 a week. And of course next Monday the Albanese Labor government is taking $300 off people's power bills. What have we got from those opposite? We have Mr Dutton's announcement—it's not a plan; it's an announcement—which is serving up the most expensive form of energy there is and asking Australians to pay for it.
