Labor government hit by different ‘economic reality’

Former Greens advisor Ben Oquist says the government has “one big challenge” at the moment, which is the cost of living crisis.

He said the government has been hit by a “different economic reality”.

“And that’s what the budget was about and it didn’t do a lot more than was expected, it was no surprises, but it really did reset the economic debate in this country,” he told Sky News Australia.
