Senator HUME (Victoria) (14:03): ABS data shows that, since the election of the Albanese Labor government, real disposable income in Australia has gone backwards by 8.7 per cent. That's a worse outcome than comparable countries. Given your repeated justification that interest rates peaked later and lower in Australia, why is it that the disposable income of Australian households has been hit harder than in comparable countries? Senator McKenzie interjecting— Senator Watt interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order! Senator McKenzie and Senator Watt, both of you are very fortunate to have voices which project across the chamber. Question time is not the time to exercise your voices. I'm asking you to listen in respectful silence.
