Today in question time the Prime Minister said, 'Mr Speaker, Labor, even most recently, have been seeking to tear down JobKeeper.' That is not true. Labor supported JobKeeper wage subsidies, along with the business community and the trade union movement, when the government was still saying it was a dangerous idea. We called for the return of JobKeeper, along with the New South Wales Treasurer, Dominic Perrottet, something that led to the Prime Minister losing it and, according to Nikki Savva, 'hurling the F-bomb at Perrottet'.
