The government will continue to do everything that we responsibly can to help households and businesses at a time that we acknowledge is genuinely difficult for many, many people. It's been our singular focus over the course of this year and, indeed, the year before—making sure that households and businesses are supported by delivering cost-of-living relief and that little bit of extra support, all of which you have opposed. It doesn't matter whether it's cheaper medicines, cheaper child care, higher wages, energy bill relief or tax cuts. All of those things have been met with opposition by those opposite. So, when people talk to us about prices and about the future and about the cost of living, there is only one group of people in this chamber who have consistently and persistently sought to deal with the challenges that Australians are facing, and it's the people on this side of the chamber. Everybody sitting over there can go to an election or go into the next year understanding that they have done very, very little indeed to help. (Time expired)
