How about stopping it altogether for 5 years! 🤷

The 300 dollars is just a a false narrative. They should be reducing the cost of energy, the cost of food, the cost of fuel, the cost of housing, the cost of education etc… Andrew Charlton has no idea just like Canberra has no idea about regional cost of living and no reception for data or phones. That money could have been better spent on the community for other supposed projects. Could we please have an audit or review about this budget which seems to be a cash splash for jobs for the boys, as per usual. Just saying for a friend. 🙏

To all who celebrated albo winning thinking all your problems were solved... two wings of the SAME BIRD

The priority should be for next generations to be able to afford to BUY a house. There's no hope for them.

The budget does not fix inflation or cost living woes. It just delays cost of living woes until this hand out ceases.

Why energy rebate for everyone? Why do billioniaires need $300?

This is genuinely the most scattershot complaint. We don't complain about other subsidies rich people get. Yet now the gov is giving a concession to everyone the response is "WHY ARE YOU GIVING HANDOUTS TO BILLIONAIRES".

the cost of living will be "under control" when the cost of living returns to what it was trending towards pre-2019. my electricity bill and rent has already gone up this year, not to mention food, when albo brings those prices back to what they were then it will be "under control". not before. dont forget - labour overspending and nation-wide lockdowns during covid is the reason we are in this mess now
