In relation to the cost-of-living pressures that the senator went through, the senator is on the team that voted against almost every single one of the measures designed to deliver cost-of-living relief to Australians. They have opposed the measures we have put in place to bring in more bulk-billing and cheaper medicines. They have opposed measures we have delivered to try to increase the supply of housing. On electricity, they have opposed the relief for Australians and they are proposing the most expensive form of energy there is. That is their response to the cost of living. (Time expired)
