My question is to the Treasurer. Treasurer, there were no cuts to immigration today, yet the Prime Minister blew a $7 billion black hole in your budget with a single text to an ABC journalist. Labor's in denial and gaslighting the public on this. How can Australians trust anything Labor says on migration and the effects on your budget?
