Labor Party vows ‘gas prices will come down during first term’

Shadow Foreign Secretary Simon Birmingham says the Labor Party has promised “gas prices will come down during the first term”.

“Instead, they predicted a sharp increase in their budget, but did not plan to cope with it,” he told Sky News Australia.

“The timing of the first issue, and soon another issue, is really whether the types of interventions they are going to take in the long run will make a difficult situation worse…whether they will scare off investors in the future.”
