The Prime Minister said the Jobs and Skills Summit would be 'focused on lifting wages and lifting profits in a way that doesn't put pressure on inflation'.

The Jobs and Skills Summit that will be held in a fortnight will not be as"ambitious" as going for the sort of Prices and Incomes Accord that Bob Hawke had introduced after his economic summit in 1983, but it will be about bringing employers and unions together and working to improve wages and profits without causing inflation to rise, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says the Jobs and Skills summit will be focussed on improving wages and profits without putting pressure on inflation. Picture: NCA NewsWire / Gary Ramage "Our task is to get on with that agenda, which we are doing, but to set Australia up for what are the next lot of reforms...I think that's a strength. Through collaboration, you'll get better outcomes.

Mr Albanese said he wanted the Referendum on whether an Indigenous Voice advisory body to be enshrined in the constitution to be held this term. "If you want to improve housing, health and education outcomes as well as close the gap on life expectancy, don't make those decisions in Canberra in isolation from asking the people directly impacted by those decisions."

Nothing is happening, Albanese is a magician - LOOK over here, look over there but don't look at what I'm doing - Nothing. Look at France, look at the Solomon Islands or China, look at first Nations, look at global warming but don't look in your wallet and see I've done nothing

😂

Another useless plan?

Haaaaa..sorry who is this ?

It's also a summit to bring in skilled workers from overseas...yeah that really helps bring down unemployment...useless government as expected

Good luck with companies complying to that, they all after profits before wages, they will increase prices and wonder why they get less sales then blame it on the casual staff and stop giving them hours

Good to see a PM focussing on delivering election promises

He ought to focus on reliability of supply & reduction of cost of inputs into production, ie. improved reliability & reduction of electricity costs, same with gas, same with availability & cost of diesel & fertilizer (costs are extreme which means food prices are up).

Former government already solved the problem Albo, tax cuts not inflationary ?

To Pedofil

Need ways and businesses to generate new money.

Id like to see that 🤪🤪🤪

You really have no clue Albo.

Geeez,I could have sworn he said that pre election ,between telling everyone he was bought up ,yeah ,I know 🤮

Albo speaks with folk tongue.

When are Australians going to have the $270 cheaper power that you promised at the Election. Plus don't forget, 'with your appalling memory of facts and figures', the National $600 cost of living payment that you were pressuring Morrison to implement!

Pissing in the wind Albanese. Raise wages and unemployment the next week

Lifting profits on big business don't worry about small businesses we know your game.

How did we get this as our PM? Perpetual scowling face is so uninspiring.

Believable 😂

Albo is full of s--t ,he vowed to reduce electricity prices and knows he has not got a hope. Albo does not know the first thing about lifting profits only taxing them.

Pointless summit during full employment

How does that work without increase in productivity? Perhaps by getting rid of multiple layers of federal and state bureaucracies and incompetent politicians !

Ah yes, Albos magic wand

Hey , of All the things you've quoted AlboMP has said, what tally have YOU arrived at?

Unquestionably, this will be a first. Alleluia!

And mass immigration.

Hahahaha

Can't lift wages or profit without increasing inflation that is basic economics if Labor can't understand that they should be removed from office emidiately

Another Labor liar

Doesn’t higher wages equate to less margin. How then do the business owners get more profit That’s right, they increase prices. And, isn’t that inflationary dumboalbo

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Economics AlboMP style

They have no idea

Oh what fools we mortals be. And you Albo are one of the biggest. All talk & no action.

If economics doesn't make sense then look at science. May be you can realise few things are impossible.

What an absolute failure of a leader, we have Australian families living out of their cars and in tents and all he cares about is the appearance of a good economy.

What?

😂😂😂🤡

That means cutting the executive class rip-off.

This man is out of his mind and has know idea how to run this country. All his going to do is run it into the ground with there extreme policy and complete pig headed attitudes

And I trust Albanese

Albo just can't make decisions in government. More planning more talking just as we expected. Three years is too long for this mob.

That's all we need, another talkfest.

That's what we need. More profits for companies. You are a Muppet

🤡

Is he sure he didn't have secret meeting to give his portfolio to Scott Morrison?

Is this summit held overseas or in some remote place he needs to fly to in order to keep up his AirbusAlbo reputation

An economics degree from The Greens University. Good job This will end well 🤦🏼‍♀️

So it’s not a skill summit it’s a shakedown taking advantage of a workforce shortage (mafia tactics)

Can Albo cook? Because he talks crap about everything else that matters. Lifting wages, well someone has to pay for that increase either private or public funds which impact overall earnings. Productivity gains are a long road, not an overnight gain. Classic Each Way Albo.

What about lifting apartheid! The Australian Government stole people’s careers and destroyed lives. Give them back.

Sorry for your loss

Get rid of job networks their a failure. Stop dodging this and do something

When you say you studied economics at university Albo, did you mean ‘Home Economics’? You know, cooking and sewing!

It just another fucking gab fest that is waste of taxpayer's money. The time for talking has long gone. Time to take action. The people of Australia have been waiting for 12 weeks and counting. You care more about overseas than Australia.

LOL

Relax everybody AlboMP has yet another plan, no im kidding start pannicking. Hes probably going to upstage Biden and borrow 1 trillion dollars to fight inflation.

This guy has been in politics for 100 years and is elected PM claiming to have solutions to the crisis Aus is currently in. And he wants a jobs and skills summit. When jobs are everywhere right now! Mr Symbolism couldn’t build a cook pen

🤦 thats like two magnets, north to north and south to south they repel each other. May work in fairy rainbow land but reality, nah.

If it looks like a goose and act’s like a goose it’s odds on a goose 🤬🤯

Good luck Boof head!😂😂😂😂😂😂

Just another Labor liar

He also said; “Labor would cut the cost of living.” More BS!

You had a plan.. why the need for talkfest job summit 🤔

The lnp focused on lifting profits, hoping for trickle down, an economic theory discredited since the 2010's.

So inflation will not go up under an Albanese Govt. Yeah, right, Bullshit!

Just Talk, talk and more talk! talk about this and that, when does the real ACTION start, the action that improves Australians lives and start making a difference! Labour AlboMP JEChalmers Mark_Butler_MP Bowenchris enough talk - time for Action!!

Only thing he is boosting is our countries decent into hell.

Bidenesq of him 🤪🥴😬

Yeah ok what a wanker!

Jobs summit must restart nation’s moribund economic debateThe Herald's View: The summit might not be as historic as in 1983 but it should try to reinvigorate the economic policy debate which all but fizzled out after nine years under the Coalition Why did it fizzle? Oh wait, a sycophantic 4th estate failed their duty and attacked the opposition instead of government auspol The first mistake of this article & Charmers is assuming that the unemployment figures are in any regard accurate, they aren't! Unemployment figures are wildly inaccurate as they are based on surveys where the objective is to remove ppl from the data of unemployed. We all know this summit is just to build fake national consensus to bring in 200k+ new warm bodies, suppressing wage growth and inflating house prices
