I've covered every budget since 1998. They normally don't leave me angry. But a $6.5b decision forced on the current government contained in last week's budget is still upsetting me .. https://t.co/UkfCNjY61Y

He’ll now go down in history as the worst Prime Minister Australian has ever had.

There’s no debate, and no coming back from this.

Do you agree?

The Liberals are responsible for more cover ups than a dodgy tattoo parlour.

Josh Frydenberg lands a gig at Goldman Sachs.
Good luck to him.

[AAP FactCheck @aapfactcheck]

Federal opposition MP Karen Andrews has attempted to push responsibility for rising mortgage costs onto the new Albanese government, claiming interest rates are always higher under Labor.

This is false.

How far we’ve come 🔥

One of Australia’s best, fairest, sharpest, classiest writers on the economy, Colin Brinsden, is leaving AAP in the press gallery this week, and this time I fear he actually means it!

Thanks @brinny56 - you’ll be missed, but all the best for what comes next.
