. @JoshFrydenberg 'Budget Update' presser. Apparently we are back spending and working. #auspol
"The road ahead is challenging"

Yes, cutting #JobKeeper will do that #auspol
"Australian's are approaching Christmas with optimism and hope"

I bet the 13% below the Poverty Line aren't. #auspol
Is @JoshFrydenberg still including those working only 1 hour a week as employed for his unemployment rate? Asking for a friend.

#auspol
I bet he doesn't mention underemployment in his little list of stats.

#auspol
Trade tensions is an economic risk according to @JoshFrydenberg. Of course he is right but #scottyfromarketing caused the tensions so does that make @ScottMorrisonMP an economic risk? I'd say so. #auspol
Apparently we are placed better than any other nation in the world. On what measures? #auspol
. @JoshFrydenberg says the trade tensions are very serious. He was asked how concerned he was regarding potential job losses. Didn't actually answer the question at all. #auspol
My measure of an economies performance is how well the poorest citizens are doing. The problem with the Liberals is that they don't care about this at all. #auspol
. @JoshFrydenberg says in terms of paying back debt, he references Howard and Costello. LOL
He then says they got close before COVID. LOL
I thought we were back in black last year? 😅😅😅
Joshy doesn't provide a number on the years to pay it back.. #auspol
. @JoshFrydenberg also states that they had to spend and increase the debt during COVID. He is right. A pity that the last 7 years of economic debate has been attacking Labor for doing EXACTLY THE SAME THING DURING THE GFC. #auspol
A reminder (again) that #JobMaker is a scam. #auspol https://twitter.com/HaydenJOConnor/status/1332854759825391616?s=20
. @JoshFrydenberg is saying it would be premature for States to take action regarding the few cases in NSW. Probably true but it's about time that this Government shut the f**k up and let the states manage their own borders without interference. #auspol
