So Dutton is critical of the Labor government's budgeted trillion dollar debt (of which it inherited 89% of from Dutton’s mob), yet he has no problem with borrowing almost the same amount to build his pointless nuclear wet dream?
Cognitive dissonance much ?

Dutton’s plan to cull public servants isn’t just risky – it’s misguided
While it’s true Labor has hired 36,000 public servants since 2022, most of them aren’t located where the Coalition leader believes them to be.

Labor slightly and gradually improves conditions of people, especially working class people, the Greens remind people more could be done quicker, and the Liberals and Nationals vote against even the slightest improvements.
