Cost of Living

I take their interjections. I know that the member for Lindsay has been saying that they need to rebrand their values over there. It's not a marketing problem over there; it's a meltdown. The member for Hume said that his leadership was a change or die moment, and then he made the wrong choice. He said it was a change or die moment, and then he forgot to change. So that leaves only one option. They haven't changed a bit. They haven't learned a thing. All three of the right-wing parties over there share a divisive anti-worker and anti-housing agenda, and that more than anything explains the mess that they're in. We're delivering cost-of-living relief, with more cost-of-living relief from tomorrow, 1 July. We're proud to do that, and it's happening despite those opposite not because of them.
