Labor has urged the coalition to speed up major infrastructure projects and give pensioners a boost to stimulate the flagging economy

.

The economy has been in the spotlight after the Reserve Bank cut the official cash rate to a record low of one per cent last week. "We accept that with the cash rate coming down - although that's only one factor - it means the return certainly when people have money in the bank and the like, those returns are likely to come down."

Would labour bring back our industries? Don’t be so friking stupid! How does the UN have jurisdiction over warragamba damn ask that question SBSNews dumbarses!

Economy would be greatly boosted if State & Fed Gov gave major Contracts to Aussie coys. Maybe higher $ due to higher wages, worker's rights & adherence to OH&S. The 'Aussie' benfit surely out weighs supposed $ savings. Many overseas contracts blow out due 2 poor end product etc.

Wouldn’t we be better off using the money to encourage new businesses in the renewable energy sector, tech, electric vehicles etc. Surely just building more roads just encourages short term employment and does nothing to expand our economy long term.

auspol Labor's Catherine King calls for more infrastructure but refused to put a dollar figure on what she's calling for. Old playbook, make vague proposals that try to make the Govt look like they're not doing enough without committing yourself to anything at all.

When is this PM going to pay an aged pension above the poverty line? They live like millionaires while the aged go hungry and cold. This is a disgrace. Forget about the giveaways to these refugees, look after our own first.

They’ve done that in Vic and nothing’s happened. How about a stimulus package for everyone? I mean, seeing that it’s becoming apparent we can’t avoid the coming crash
