Treasurer Jim Chalmers says Australians 'will weather the storm' as he warned of the economic challenges and the 'perilous' conditions in the global economy.
Mr Chalmers said he will be talking about the combination of rising interest rates and falling global growth ahead of his state of economy address.
'The global economy is treading a pretty perilous path,' he told Sky News Australia.
'My belief is that we will weather the storm.'
"providing responsible cost of living relief" is inflationary mate. these people have no idea what they are doing.

Particularly if you're going to bring in laws which will choke the Australian economy and raise costs of living.

That's coded language for, I am not doing anything about lowering inflation as I promised before the election and all you little people out there must pay for my gross incompetence as Treasurer.

Jimbo Jim Bob the junior lad from back room accounting is in the da house.
He is lost. The LNP didn't leave him a big budget surplus to waste - he's got inflation eating away at his party - he's got a recession on the way.
However and you don't free streak knives.
Climate Change is where it's at.
Not the Federal Budget - inflation - global supply lines - recession closing in fast - cost of living.
And all Jim Bob can say is it's the LNP's fault.
No, it's not. The LNP don't control global supply lines or the global economy.
Labor wants to talk about playing God and reversing climate change, which will be a complete waste of money and a waste of everyone's time.
Labor only govern when everything is right for them. They normally win an election, and the LNP has left no budget deficit.
This time, they won at the wrong time. And poor old Jim Bob is lost.
Dear Leader wants to spend Billions on playing God. He has Chris electric Hey-Suss from faulty powers and Tanya out on her broom they are the super hero's of this train wreck. And they might well soon be the super villains.

What do you mean "we", Jim?
You will sit pretty on the taxpayers teat as always, ignoring all our pain with weasel words and living off our blood you suck from our veins.
@Stikibits Says:
Chalmers is a free-market lunatic.
He has little hope of doing anything but continuing to fark up regular Australians and all of our public services to serve free-market goons in the private sector.
The ALP is free-market-goons-lite, so things will get little better.
I'm sure their free-market beneficiaries in the private sector will come away laughing all the way to their off-shore bank accounts, though, hey?
@allmighty736 Says:
So Jim Chalmers has a 30 billion dollar debt that HE personally owes China that is going to be wiped from Our Economy to save his neck 🤔
@gw5436 Says:
Hey Jim... Where's our cost savings you promised before the election? Yeah?
Lying trash like you have lived of our taxes and suffering for how much of your lives?
Stop lying to us and just give up your bullshit.

@davidcarter4247 Says:
Think Chalmers will be another Wayne Swan. Swan blew the Howard surplus on an overreaction to the GFC and produced a string of budgets that drive us deeper into debt. You just know that Labor take Morrison's massive COVID debt and turn it into an IMF intervention. When you have Albanese citing a child care as his way out of recession you know they have no idea what to do. Unemployment will be his biggest problem going into 2023, not a labor shortage. And like the GFC response, billions will be poured into programs that will exacerbate problems, not fix them.

By tomorrow the treasury will be empty and Morrison will be all to blame. Gee, did he have to worry about Australian defenses? Now Albanese has Xi 's assurances (MacArthur got the same from the Philippine President right before the Japanese landed in the Philippines: he was told he had assurances from the Japanese) If any one mentions the word "global" in reference to economics they are outdated globalists about to sell you out. Also, the Chinese due to the "one child" policy now have 30 million excess men over women. Excess men always get exported, in this case likely to Taiwan then to Australia (Sea Peoples, American southern border, to Great Britain from Africa via France).

Jim Chalmers, as so many of his colleagues, is highly under-qualified to be in any Governmental position. Just check out the educational qualifications of the 22-man Labor Government Cabinet for yourself. And this 32% of the Primary Vote gaggle is running (ruining) our lives yet again! Most of them never even had a decent job before spring-boarding into politics straight from university! They know nothing!
