Sky News Treasurers’ Debate: Watch the highlights as Jim Chalmers takes on Angus Taylor
Jim Chalmers and Angus Taylor have gone head-to-head in the Sky News Treasurers’ Debate – and faced some very personal questions from the moderator. WATCH THE HIGHLIGHTS
Treasurer Jim Chalmers and Coalition treasury spokesman Angus Taylor have outlined their competing economic visions for Australia in the Sky News Treasurers’ Debate.
And it didn’t take long for sparks to fly. Mr Chalmers accused the Liberals of being filled with “DOGE sycophants” with a plan for “secret cuts” to fund their nuclear energy plan, and Mr Taylor hammered Labor for presiding over an “unprecedented collapse” in Australia’s standard of living.
In one memorable moment, host Ross Greenwood quizzed Mr Chalmers over whether he had a glass jaw, and Mr Taylor on whether he wasn’t prepared to put in the hard yards.
