Treasurer Jim Chalmers has produced an essay which appears to discuss more about intervention and pushing the economy in directions the government wants on issues like clean energy, according to Sky News Political Editor Andrew Clennell.

“The Australian Financial Review editorialised against this essay this morning with the rather blunt headline that ‘Chalmers’ new manifesto ignores all the lessons of Hawke and Keating’, suggesting Mr Chalmers was taking up a kind of socialist agenda,” Mr Clennell said. “I do feel that generally speaking, there is a little bit of tension between Anthony Albanese and Jim Chalmers, with Chalmers pushing policy more to the left than Albanese.

“There is a view in the Labor Party too that Mr Chalmers no doubt has an agenda to appeal to the Labor Party membership in order to one day get their votes for the leadership.”
