I thought today we might get through the MPI without me needing to go back to my favourite ABC fact check and, unfortunately, we didn't get there. The assistant minister was nice enough to mention the $1 trillion in debt that the government likes to talk about. Unfortunately, the data doesn't back up that claim. The number was $517 billion when this government took over in 2022. It is in the budget papers.
