Tasmanian Labor
Treasurer Michael Ferguson’s attempts to claim credit
for GST and COVID payment windfalls expose a Government that is completely out
of touch when it comes to the soaring cost of living.
Households and businesses are being stretched to breaking
point right now – they need a Treasurer focused on getting the basics right for
them, not gloating about federal payments he had nothing to do with while the
State’s debt ticks over $1 billion.
A good start would be supporting Labor’s plan to cap
power prices.
Tasmanians know the Liberals aren’t getting the basics
right on the economy – and our State’s record debt, soaring energy prices and a
cost of living crisis prove it.
