Government needs a ‘fighting inflation first’ mindset: Angus Taylor

The Australian economy is shuddering to a halt while the Labor government is “asleep at the wheel”, says Shadow Treasurer Angus Taylor.

“We’ve got productivity falling off a cliff like nothing we have ever seen before,” Mr Taylor told Sky News Australia.

“We need the government to take responsibility, we need a whole blend of policies that’s going to deal with this – we need a ‘fighting inflation first’ mindset.”
