Are you feeling better off today than you did three years ago?
For many people I speak with across the electorate the answer is a resounding ‘no’.
While this is tragic, it’s unsurprising as over the last few years Australians have had the biggest fall in disposable income in the developed world.
And the real-world impacts are as long as your arm:
- Electricity prices are up 32%;
- Food prices are up over 13%;
- Education cost have soared by over 12%;
- Rents locally are up 27%; and
- 12 interest rate hikes means the average mortgage holder under Labor has paid an additional $50,000 to their bank to keep a roof over their head.
As you know, there is an election fast approaching.
While the Albanese Labor Government is intently focused on the polls and cynically waiting for the opportune time to announce the election date – the Coalition has been shoulders to the wheel.
We are laser focused on the priorities that matter to you, your friends and your family.
A Dutton-led LNP Government will tackle the cost-of-living-crisis head on. We will get Australia Back on Track. We will do this by:
- Increasing housing supply to make buying and renting more affordable.
- Reigning in wasteful government spending and reducing inflation;
- Delivering cheaper energy bills with our plan for a balanced energy mix;
- Putting downward pressure on grocery prices through new competition policy, including divestiture powers; and
- Investing $9 billion into medicare to restore bulk billing.
Together with your support, a Dutton-led LNP Government can get Australia back on track.
