Prime Minister Anthony Albanese told a meeting of Labor’s caucus on Tuesday that his government’s MPs must prioritise the cost-of-living crisis, arguing that it is the top issue among voters. A number of cost-of-living relief measures that were announced in the 14 May budget will take effect from 1 July, in addition to the stage-three income tax cuts and an increase in the minimum wage. Albanese has also warned the Coalition to expect a union campaign against its nuclear energy policy; he said unions know that the policy will destroy jobs, undermine the manufacturing industry and result in higher electricity prices.
