Hoping and expecting artificial intelligence to be a big focus of our Economic Reform Roundtable, so I wrote this longer piece about finding a middle path on AI that makes Australians beneficiaries not victims of accelerating technological change. #auspol #ausecon @GuardianAus

New figures from the ABS show that headline & underlying inflation have both fallen to their lowest rates in almost four years. Data released today confirms both headline and underlying inflation were in the RBA’s target band in the June quarter 2025. Monthly headline.

Very welcome new inflation numbers are a powerful demonstration of the progress Australians have made together. Quarterly and monthly, headline and underlying, goods and services inflation - all down. #auspol #ausecon.

We're delivering on a key election promise and introducing legislation to ensure that the penalty rates of workers on awards are protected into the future. This is all about helping hard working Australians earn more and keep more of what they earn. #auspol
