00:00Hoping for a little lunar luck to land an auspicious election result.
00:11Peter Dutton was in Sydney giving with one hand on this side of an election, while warning
00:18against government largesse on the other side.
00:21Would you cut spending?
00:22Where we see wasteful spending, yes we would.
00:25The opposition leaders vowing to shrink the public service and look at inefficiencies
00:29across the board, arguing it will help pay off debt and bring down inflation, but he
00:35won't detail those plans until after the election.
00:39We'll do that in government.
00:40We call on Peter Dutton to come clean on his cuts and what they mean.
00:44Parliament returns this week for the first sitting fortnight of the year and the government's
00:48aiming to get unfinished business passed, but that won't include a proposal for a beefed
00:53up environment watchdog because no deal's been sealed with the Coalition or the crossbench.
00:59The sittings also provide the opposition with a platform to pursue the Prime Minister
01:03over anti-Semitism and what he knew about a caravan terror plot in Sydney.
01:08If the Prime Minister of our country is not across what was potentially the biggest terrorist
01:12attack in our country's history, essentially until the public found out about it, I think
01:16that is an absolute abrogation of his responsibility.
01:20Peter Dutton is always trying to politicise these issues.
01:24He's always looking for conflict and culture wars.
01:28Conflict seems certain in what could be the final sitting fortnight before the upcoming election.
