As we on this side know, not everyone in this parliament has supported the Albanese Labor government's cost-of-living relief measures. Our government inherited an inflation rate of 6.1 per cent from those opposite at the last election, and we've worked hard to bring that number down while supporting Australian families. Can the minister please explain why a slash-and-burn budget approach would've left Australian families worse off?
