Not every Australian will get ‘anything at all’ in budget to help pay their bills

PR Counsel’s Kristy McSweeney says not every Australian is going to get “anything at all” to help pay bills as the government flags cost of living relief in the May budget.

Treasurer Jim Chalmers will hand down the federal budget on Tuesday, May 14.

“The government will say cost of living relief, and they have flagged that there are cost of living relief,” Ms McSweeney told Sky News host Paul Murray.

“A lot of it is loaded into policy areas the government thinks that they have got a firm ground to stand on against the Opposition.

“We’re going to see a lot of these targeted reliefs moved into things like childcare policy, so not everybody out there is going to get anything at all or any help whatsoever paying their bills.”
