2022 Budget Special

In 2019 the Coalition pulled off an unexpected election victory, just weeks after Josh Frydenberg handed down his first Federal Budget. Three years and a pandemic later, can the Treasurer deliver another election-winning spend to win over weary voters? As cost of living pressures continue to hurt the hip pocket, how much relief will be offered for those struggling to pay their bills? Is a fuel excise cut on the table? Will we see a major pre-election cash splash or will it be restrained given the mounting debt? And how will Labor sell its alternative economic plan? Joining David Speers on the panel: Barnaby Joyce, Deputy Prime Minister; Jim Chalmers, Shadow Treasurer; Jacqui Lambie, Independent Senator for Tasmania; Zali Steggall, Independent MP for Warringah; Paul Kelly, Editor-at-large, The Australian.
