Treasurer Jim Chalmers has defended his economic record in a speech to the Labor-aligned John Curtin Research Centre in Melbourne. Chalmers also used the speech to outline Labor’s plans to create a new ‘fourth economy’ over coming decades, which will be driven by energy, technology, demography, industry and geography; he noted that the nation’s three previous ‘economies’ have occurred roughly 40 years apart. Chalmers also used his speech to criticise Opposition leader Peter Dutton, describing him as the most divisive leader of a major political party in Australia’s modern history.
