‘Disgraceful, dishonest, and unethical’: Albanese government’s budget under fire

Former Queensland premier Campbell Newman says the federal budget released by the Albanese government was the most “disgraceful, unethical, and dishonest” budget he has seen by a prime minister and treasurer in his lifetime.

“I think it was a terrible budget, it’s the most disgraceful, unethical, dishonest actions of any Prime Minister and Treasurer in my lifetime,” Mr Newman told Sky News host Steve Price.

“I think that Angus Taylor’s budget reply speech was very workmanlike and sound.”
