The new Treasurer on the block has played a traditional game of not crowing about an economy that he’s had nothing to do with making it perform so well.

Credit-rating agency Standard & Poor’s suggests Labor’s big spending promises could fire up inflation, higher interest rates, an economic slowdown and a blowout of the budget deficit, but will his economics A-team save him and us?

Look out! It’s only four days in and the new Labor Government is already linked to tax reform.

Labor’s (and the “teals'”) desire to be more than a one-term wonder should work against the new Government moving too far to the left on economic policies.

At a recent pre-election speech in Sydney, Albo did his best to remind business and the media of how significant the Hawke-Keating governments were. The implication was that Labor can get it right in Government. Now it’s time to make this happen.
