My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to his last answer and his repeated statements that he would not accept jobseeker being portrayed as some sort of second prize to JobKeeper. Isn't it the case that JobKeeper recipients maintain the work relationship between a worker and their employer, whereas jobseeker recipients do not? Isn't it true that a person is better off if they have a job?
