How arrogant was Chalmers spinning his last budget as not being inflationary.

Worst government for a generation

Worst government ever

The only ones in deep strife are the Australian people, don't forget that when Albo the POS retires we have to pay for it.

But the clown had all the answers when in opposition where are they now .....?

Albanese must cut excise taxes on petrol and diesel to reduce cost of living.

And the Governor Generals pay rise of $ 200000 isn't inflationary. 😮

Anthony “recession” Albanese

Albo and Dr Dumbo are economic legends, just ask them.

Albo doing a fantastic job for the wef

Bloody scammers...politicians...

Albonobo isn’t in deep strife he can give himself another pay rise, simultaneously giving the Ukraine another cool billion

There are just so many reasons to despise these incompetent fools. What a disgrace, it just makes me so angry.

Why did he give the incoming G-G an immediate, unasked for pay rise of 43% whilst refusing to budge on the excise duty for petrol? Absolutely disgraceful.

Albanese will blame Peter Dutton for it.

Albo you used to give it to Scott Morrison every chance you had, now you find it’s not that easy mate

Stop handing out money!!

Another term of labor will make Australia a play ground for the very rich and a hell on earth for the rest of us, the new very poor. As labors green renewables wipes out manufacturing and as such the middle class

Dorothy, time to give a country on the other side of the world another half a billion Australian dollars.

Employing dole bludgers to entertain other dole bludgers, it's called the NDIS.

Assange will be begging to go back to prison, when he see how astronomical prices are and Chalmers thinks high inflation is funny, you can't get the smirk of his face.

You better sack the new head of the Reserve Bank Labor, she can cop the blame for your incompetence.

Dutts for P.M., we've had enough of Labor!

BRING ON THE FEDERAL ELECTION!!!! We need to get rid of these useless incompetents!!!!

The Labor government has to do something it doesn't know how to do - CUT SPENDING!! 😡

We need to be protesting against this awful lot, against mass immigration, foreign ownership and economically crippling energy polies etc etc

If it’s so good Albo… Why am I now struggling just to be able to feed my kids and keep a roof over their heads? I hear you’ve got a rental property or two, I only need one.

They're economically illiterate.

When you spend money like drunken sailor, inflation happens.

How much more does Albo and Labor have to do before we vote no confidence and call an early election?

This Labor government is so fkn inept, they have got to go

Cost of living isn't going down, the whole country is.

The Rudd / Gillard era was excruciating. This current Albanese Govt is just the usual inept characters being recycled yet again.

Rubbish , not inflation , corporate greed . This is ALL intentional .

Well someone has to pay for Julian Assange's flight.

Yeah, let's give the banks all our tax returns. Inflation isn't going anywhere. This is not from spending. If i hear sticky Inflation one more time I'm going to spew

So we are all struggling and we have half the purchasing power after the covid plandemic so how does this shit help anybody ??

All gling according to plan - you will own nothing and be happy.

The good news the 22 million that don’t have a home loan will be happy

Labor , stop wasting money!!

What cost of living when Albo just rubber stamp the G-G absence pay rise.

Albo. Us here in the middle class making ends wet pay check to pay check will be looking for an alternative come the next election.

Another rate rise?? Come on, Dr Jimbo assured us all he was on top of it all👍✅😳🤣🤣but of course, this is all due to the "mess the previous government left behind" never the fault of jimbonomics or Al-pinocchio-tin-ear-itis😂😂😂😂😂😂

It had to be....for years we uncomplaining people accepted the notion that to survive in Australia, you needed to be a two income (well paid) household!

Deep strife is an understatement…what’s Snake Chalmers excuse going to be when the cash rates rise in August?

One of the worst Governments in history,

It wasn't going to matter who was running this country it was always going to happen

all about wind farms waste of money

So tax break they give already taking it back .. amazing 👏

Bloody genius . ALBO the great . 🍌🤡🤪💩

They lost 60 billion dollars pulling out of the french sub deal

OMG, same story in NZ in the last 6 yrs. It was a nightmare under Labour here.

RBA is forced to raise the rate when govt fails to control the inflation.

Damned if you do... Raise interest rates and people have less money to spend. Keep them the same or low, people have more money, but prices will rise, and people can afford less. Billions in tax cuts will only force prices up. Increasing wages will force prices up. Increasing welfare will force prices up. Government spending has to decrease a lot, and that's just the starting point.

Employing another 36,000 public servants to do nothing but pay union fees to the Labor Party.

Labor …. Extreme lack of talent….

So sick of this..

The Governor General's cost of living crisis gas been addressed by Albo and co so all is well in Australia.

Incompetent Albo

Albos pay increases are rising a lot higher than inflation. Not sacked yet Albo! Governor Generals pay rise has the desired effect hasn’t it!🇦🇺

I don't think that anywhere thinks highly of Australia except Australia. "Backward" is a word that you will hear from a lot people in Europe and USA. Australia is now a commodities economy like most of South America and like most South American nations that is a not a good sign for the future. It seems that politicians either have to know how to sink the plonk or are mannish women.

Interest rates are not high. 5% is ideal for mortgage holders and people with cash to invest.

Notice when Australia does well it because it’s sooooo uniquely Australian but when Australia does bad it’s always overseas !

Bill and Ben the flower pot men!!!!!!!

While playing with everyone💯, absolutely responsible for his actions💯, they all forget people surf the web💯

and who did albo and grim jim throw under the bus? and as albo tells us about 'downward' pressure you can see his nose get longer and longer

Albo knows our pain but won't do anything,,,he has more plans than an architect's office!😢

The economic model that they are using for the past 2 decades, is now being shown for what it is. Time for a new model and government.

Hope the aussies who voted for these people are happy😔

Albanese you should be paying the $600'000 flight back to Australia for Julian Assange!

All by design

They don't know what they're doing.

Blah, blah, blah...pollies lie!

Dear Albo Pls F ck of f in the next election. Regards EverydayAussie

BUT it's NOT Their Fault! It's Scott Morrison's.

Ask Albanese what he is doing about it, he won't answer he will just whinge about the opposition.

Prices are cheaper now than when we took office, electricity for instance.

Massive govt spending on bloated, overpaid, unproductive bureaucracies.

If this govt cannot control then vote them out

The uniparty.

Love That Song Chris! It's THIS Government. Not Responsible. Neither is Daniel Andrews.!

Of course those politician pay rises certainly didn't help

We are coming out of a crisis where the country’s engine room was shut down for 12 months. Instead of giving the engine every source of energy available to bring it back as fast as possible this government replaces it with a 12v battery and a solar panel. As a businessman, give us the tools, we’ll give you the sweat.

Increasing interest rates won't reduce housing, council rates, petrol,food, or energy costs. You know,the things we need to survive. The taxation embedded in business to operate is causing prices to go up. Increasing interest rates will cause more misery and little in the way of prices going down.

Australia 🇦🇺 needs any laws that hinder economic growth removed, Better economy? Or Better numbers?

An insult is yet to be composed but why is all his faces all the same to uncle fester

It's not our fault, we will let you know who's fault it is.

It's not worrying. The problem is the reverse bank, Treasury, the ATO etc.. government is the root cause. They will break Australia once again. Stop looking at the government for answers and actions. I have already preempted any rate rises with a higher rent on my properties going forward. At least $50-100 above the average for the type of property.

Rigged

Labor. The enemy within.

Hopeless govt , hopeless party

The more you move in quick sand the more you sink😂

More crocodile tears from Albanese and everything will be right as rain once AGAIN Or so he hopes 💯 percent

They don’t care enough because they don’t have everyday man on the street problems, it doesn’t affect them personally

Domestic inflation reflects Domestic monetary policy

NZ inflation just dropped to 3.3 % from 4 % - goes to show what a good government can do....

obviously! because the more money he gives out the more the inflation rises

now we know why they got a pay rise, they already knew. The headline should read "Albo okey, but the rest of us are screwed."

Got to get the $300 power bill payment back. Higher inflation = Higher tax income

It is mostly the increase in government charges that are causing inflation, my rental property just got slugged an additional $500 land tax... the council rates are rising and all the required safety check fees, insurance and management fees are rising... so how does that not increase rents...and that is before mortgage interest rates rises are factored in! While at the same time the little guys are being screwed, we hear the government has failed to charge the billions of dollars of royalties on all the natural gas being sold overseas cheaper than we get it here! Wouldn't it be nice to have a government that is working in the best interests of it population rather than trying to swindle them... Our taxes, our rates, our gas and electricity, our fuel, are all about double the price in the USA... and other countries! That is the result of not having a basic bill of rights that can protect individuals in every day dealings of life!
