Now employers are saying minimum wage workers should not earn enough to pay $3.94/day for lunch or to afford to rent in big cities. Albanese supports a real wage rise for these workers, Peter Dutton does not.

Albanese: “Peter Dutton sat in that (chaotic coalition) cabinet room for the entire time of 3 different PM’s… & he didn’t once sit there & think to himself..”gee, why haven’t we got a housing minister”?” Half of the 9-yr coalition tenure- they didn’t have a housing minister😱 Truth.
