Deputy Prime Minister Richard Marles has refuted claims the Albanese Government was"looking backwards" and has turned its focus away from struggling Australians.
Families are under pressure from the rising Reserve Bank cash rate - currently sitting at 1.85 per cent - which is anticipated to climb further towards the end of the year as well as soaring inflation rates leading to high petrol and grocery prices. The host argued a Royal Commission into Australia's response to the COVID-19 pandemic should take precedence over his election promise on the failed Robodebt scheme.
He defended the move from Mr Albanese to launch an inquiry to consider the"implications" of Mr Morrison's actions while in the top job. "What it is is about is learning from the past so that as we go forward, we're not making the same mistakes."
Shorten and Plibersrk started robodebt. Investigate them
It’s just one more diversion and a way to degrade Morrison. Next week it will be the Jobs Summit which will, once again, stop Labor from actually doing their job.
Sticking to Scomo like a dog with an old bone is all Labor has.. theyve basically admitted they cant fix what the promised during the election..
Skynews LNP protection racket in full swing. Only Labor govts need to be held to account, is that right?

Representative Joyce doesn’t strike me as the type that played youth cricket. He has no champion mindset, and lacks sufficient character. Take it from me, a legendary coach, Barnaby sounds like the kind of fellow that needs help making toast in the morning. For context, duh.
