Over the last three years the price of everything has gone up. Inflation and interest rates have been high and remained high. People across Dawson have less in their pocket and getting by is harder than ever. Australian’s are experiencing the sharpest decline in living standards in decades, with the current drop in disposable income the worst on record.
As the Federal member for Dawson, I know how tough people right across our region are finding things right now.
After three years, Labor’s record is; Electricity up 32% - not down by $275; Groceries up 30% - and farmers are missing out; Insurance up 35% - North Queensland punished more because of cyclones and floods; Rents up 18% - more in parts of Dawson; and a housing crisis with not one house built under their housing fund.
Labor’s ‘Big Australia’ Green only strategy has been a trainwreck for our economy and only a Coalition government can fix the mess.
The Coalition’s plan to get Australia back on track is a positive one.
Our plan to tackle inflation and higher prices will return Australia to a place where hard work is rewarded, and people can breathe life back into their household budgets. A Dutton/Littleproud government will rein in wasteful spending; reduce the burden of government red and green tapes; give more incentives for small business to thrive though tax deductions; get people moving more with 25 cents a litre off fuel; lower energy prices with a balanced and sustainable energy mix; restrict foreign ownership of our homes; and reduce Labor’s record migration intake so that housing builds can keep up.
Taxpayers earning between $45,000 and $104,000 will get $1,200 back in their tax returns, while partial offsets will be received for people earning up to $140,000. This measure is similar to the previous Coalition government’s tax relief that was scraped by the Albanese government.
The country is in an era of the worst decline in living standards in living memory. To change the country’s trajectory and to reverse the decline we must change the government.
A Coalition government will get our economy moving and get the country back on track.
