There is 38 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 4: some criticism that there's so many great things that after 39 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 4: eight years, sort of plugging the holes now with money 40 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 4: and it's a big sugar pill and we'll have a 41 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 4: sugar crash after the after the election. 42 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, what this budget really does, it's very responsible 43 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: because in the last twelve months, because we've been able 44 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: to strengthen the economy coming out of the pandemic, we've 45 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: had one of the biggest turnarounds, if the biggest turnaround 46 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: in seventy years, one hundred billion dollar turnaround in the 47 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: budget just in the last twelve months. As we've been 48 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: stewarding the economy, leading the economy out of the pandemic. 49 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 1: We have one of the strongest economies in the world 50 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 1: to come out of the pandemic, unemployments down to four percent. 51 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,239 Speaker 1: When we came in, it was five point seven percent. 52 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,639 Speaker 1: And so that has enabled us to provide this support 53 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 1: for what are real cost of living pressures. I mean, 54 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,800 Speaker 1: people who think cost of living pressures aren't there, I 55 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: don't know where they are and what place planet they're 56 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: living on. But the fuel price increase driven by the 57 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,399 Speaker 1: war in Ukraine, I mean, that's no one's fault in Australia. 58 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,079 Speaker 1: And as Australians are getting to their feet in the economy, 59 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 1: small businesses, families, you know, people having to put petrol 60 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:48,919 Speaker 1: in their car. Petrol drives up the price of everything, food, groceries, 61 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,240 Speaker 1: and so it's important that we provide that immediate relief now. 62 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 1: We can do it because the economy has been turning 63 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: around strongly. We are leading the world out of the 64 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: global pandemic with our economy and that means we can 65 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: provide that relief right now, and we need to so 66 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,359 Speaker 1: to secure the recovery that Australians have worked very hard for. 67 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 1: But evely one of the budgets and I've done this 68 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 1: is my eighth, first one I did as a member 69 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: of the Budget Committee, did three as a treasurer and 70 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: then I did done four as a Prime minister, and 71 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: every single budget we've done has been about making Australia stronger, 72 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: whether it's in our essential services like health and education, 73 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 1: or in our defense forces, or ensuring that our small 74 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 1: businesses are able to do more every year and people 75 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 1: can keep more of what they earn. 76 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 2: Well, with all. 77 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 3: That said, let's see how you go with your footy tips? 78 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 3: Are you good? 79 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 2: See breathe a sigh of reliefs.

I will not for 85 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 4: you know, I'm hope. I see you're a good tipper. 86 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: I'm not too bad because I follow it closely. I 87 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: mean I'm all in when I'm so, That's what I mean. 88 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: Sometimes in Melbourne they go you don't follow an AFL team, 89 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 1: and I've never really have. I mean, I've had an 90 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 1: interest in following the other one here and there, but 91 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: not really. I mean, if I mean I'm in Scarf's waving, 92 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:17,719 Speaker 1: I'm following the team every week, you know, and I 93 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: love it. It's one of my great passions. 94 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 4: Leccard will be the Sharks. 95 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 3: So let's kick off. 96 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 4: Tonight's game is Titans and West Tigers. 97 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 2: You're tipping Titans straight away. 98 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,159 Speaker 1: The Queensland teams doing really well this year. 99 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 4: Now Sharks and Knights. You have to choose with your 100 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 4: head not your heart. 101 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 1: Here, well, head and heart Sharks, we're top four this year. 102 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: Nico Hines, you know he's doing it. The whole team fits. 103 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: He's just I think got them really fired up and focusing. 104 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: They are absolutely amazing against St George's last week. And 105 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: looking forward, I'm looking forward to a great damn there 106 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: that could. I'll be at home again, great feeling down 107 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 1: at Shark Park. Got the back of the chips ready 108 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:56,039 Speaker 1: ready to go. 109 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 2: Actually you owe me a backet of chips. 110 00:04:57,920 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, well. 111 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 3: I'm not just you and Lily, but I also your 112 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 3: security detail. 113 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 2: I'm not made of chips. Go mate. What about it? 114 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: Great? 115 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 2: What about the Panthers versus the Rabbit as this is. 116 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: I think this is the match of the round and 117 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:19,039 Speaker 1: my head's tipping Panthers on this one. I think it'll 118 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: be a really close game. That young Locky Ilius and 119 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 1: I know his parents very very well to some of 120 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: my closest friends and lockey. I think is a great 121 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: star of the future. 122 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 4: Right And Saturday we moved to the Warriors and the Broncos. 123 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, the Broncos are getting up. I like their form 124 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: this year. They're I think they're really focusing. So I 125 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 1: think the Broncos will do really well there. 126 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,839 Speaker 2: Even though it's aways versus the Raiders. 127 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 1: One point win for the Seagles last week, you know 128 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 1: they're struggling a bit early in the season. I think 129 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 1: they'll be strong over the back half of the season, 130 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: but the Raiders are just a solid side. Ricky I 131 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: think will bring that home all right. 132 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 4: And Roosters, we always have a slow start to the year. Cowboys, Roosters, 133 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 4: where are you tipping there? 134 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 1: Cowboys, particularly at home, Cowboys burst out of the blocks 135 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 1: this year. I was up in Townsville the other day 136 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 1: and they got Chad Townsend this year. He's one of 137 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 1: my favorite Sharks players and he settled in nicely up there. 138 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 1: They've given him a warm welcome, and I think the 139 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: Cowboys are going to be very hard to beat at 140 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 1: home this year, very very hard to. 141 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 5: Beat on Sunday, and I hope you remember it's my birthday, 142 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 5: so there should be some sort of national day. 143 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:27,840 Speaker 2: I would imagine the storm versus bulldogs that Stormy. 144 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: They'll tidy that up all right. 145 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 4: And finally Eels and the Dragons. 146 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, sadly for the Dragons, they're struggling a bit 147 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:37,160 Speaker 1: again this year. But Eels, I think they've had some 148 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,359 Speaker 1: narrow losses where they've had them. I certainly had a 149 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 1: narrow loss to US a couple of weeks ago. They're 150 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 1: a very strong side, so they'll come out on top there. 151 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 5: It is, well, you're coming up for the low base 152 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,919 Speaker 5: you've got so far, the biggest score is five. So 153 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 5: that was Mark Mark Gable, who's through the ruins. 154 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 4: He said, I don't know, I'll just picked stupid teams 155 00:06:58,320 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 4: and they got five out of eight. 156 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 2: A perfect round from you, Prime Minister. 157 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 1: I hope so well, I look the only one I 158 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: really care that is what happens on Friday nights for 159 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 1: the rest for the rest of the country. Though in 160 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: the budget I mean that cut in fuel excise, I 161 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: mean harving the petrol tax and the two hundred and 162 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: fifty dollars to pensioners and others who depend on those 163 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 1: payments getting an extra four hundred and twenty dollars back 164 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: on your tax. What we've done with this, if I 165 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: can just touch on that, is that we're letting people, 166 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: because they need it right now, just keep more of 167 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 1: their own money. We're not giving them anything. It's their money. 168 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 1: So if you're paying less tax on your fuel, if 169 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 1: you're getting paying lex tasks on your income, well we've 170 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: always seen that is the best way to support Australians. 171 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 1: Give them more of what they've earned themselves. 172 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 2: There shot, and the fuel companies can't. 173 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 5: We're going to peppering you with questions, but the fuel 174 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 5: companies can't just absorb that and just keep No. 175 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 1: They can't, and there are fines. The cop on the beat, 176 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 1: the A trip will see will be out there watching 177 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 1: that very closely. And they've got strong powers. I strengthen 178 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 1: those powers when I was treasure and so they'll be 179 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 1: out there watching that very closely. But Amanda, you're right, 180 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: I mean it's not just about the here and now. 181 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: The here and now is very important and that's why 182 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 1: the other thing I'm very proud of in the budget 183 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 1: is what we're investing in regional Australia. The reason why 184 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: in the cities, you know, we can go to the 185 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 1: doctor and have one of the highest Medicare bulk billing rates, well, 186 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 1: it is the highest we've ever had. And the fact 187 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: that we can have telehealth services and we can have 188 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 1: record levels investing in our schools is because of what 189 00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:28,119 Speaker 1: our regions do. Now in our regions, over eighty percent 190 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: of our goods exports come from our regions, and we're 191 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:33,960 Speaker 1: investing in particularly those regions where we've got to unlock 192 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 1: that wealth, whether it's up in the Northern Territory, up 193 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 1: in Central Queensland, over in the Pilbra, up in the 194 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 1: hunter in New South Wales. You unlock those regions, you 195 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 1: generate the wealth and that's what pays the defense forces, 196 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 1: for hospitals, for schools, for mental health care, all of this. 197 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:51,960 Speaker 1: So that is a big part of our ongoing plan, 198 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 1: as well as investing in skills. We've got more trade 199 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:57,199 Speaker 1: apprentices and trade training than anywhere than any time in 200 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: our history. And I'll finish on this up in the 201 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 1: I was up in Brisbane the other day at the 202 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 1: trade training school up there. I have about turnament seventy 203 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 1: young kids in year eleven and twelve for training to 204 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:13,199 Speaker 1: be commercial cookery, hairdressers, in electrical trades, carpentry and so on. 205 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 1: And there was this was a room that had arguably 206 00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 1: as many mullets that I see in my own electric 207 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 1: around Cronulla. But our tats are better, by the way, 208 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,839 Speaker 1: our tats are better. And half of them wanted to 209 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 1: run their own business. Really exciting stuff. 210 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 2: Well, one day a prime minister might have a neck 211 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 2: tattoo and we. 212 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 4: Can look forward to that and look after eight years 213 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 4: and stuff's just happening just before an election. 214 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 3: But let's see what thank you?
