Soon, Australian Pension And Carer Payment Recipients Will Get $20 More For Their Fortnightly Payments
As Prime Minister Scott Morrison sought to shift the focus back to the economy, the rising cost of living is expected to be a key issue in the Federal Election.
This comes as Anthony Albanese, Opposition Leader, has drawn level with Morrison as preferred prime minster. Labor maintained a two-party preferred lead at 55 to 45 percent in the most recent Newspoll.
Both leaders currently hold 42% for preferred prime minister. Mr Albanese has increased by 2 points while 16% remain uncommitted.
Morrison campaigned in Dobell, a marginal seat on the NSW central coast. He said that the management of the economy was crucial for reducing the cost of living.
After Russia’s invasion, Ukraine caused a sharp rise in petrol prices, the cost of living is now a key election issue.
Morrison said Monday that the next election was about a choice. It is about how we manage our economy so that we can have a better future.
“These cost-of-living impacts are real, and the Australian government is aware of that.”
