Scott Morrison and Josh Frydenberg deserve ‘credit’ for COVID economic policy

Menzies Research Centre Senior Fellow Nick Cater says Scott Morrison and Josh Frydenberg should be given “credit” for their handling of the economy during the COVID pandemic. Labor says 1,220 jobs are created every day by their government and marks the highest jobs figures of any previous government. “If you remember, they spent the money during COVID deliberately in a way that would keep businesses running and people in jobs so we could have a V-shaped recovery,” Mr Cater said. “I don’t think Chalmers and Albanese can claim any credit for that. “In the end, voters will decide on how they feel about this.”
