Prime Minister Scott Morrison says his government will help train an additional 1,500 workers for the nation's defence industry under a $108.5 million election promise.Mr Morrison, who will be in Perth on Friday, will announce the expansion of the Defence Industry Pathways Program, which will upskill additional teenagers graduating or leaving school in 14 regions across the country.
"The skills and knowledge this program will give to graduates will set them up for a career in defence equipment manufacturing technology, and set them up for life." "By training an extra 1,500 workers with on-the-job experience we know these graduates will be ready to walk into the workplace."Opposition leader Anthony Albanese will campaign in Sydney, with Labor launching a new attack on the government's handling of the economy."Scott Morrison doesn't hold a hose, but he should have held a calculator," the TV ad says.
He ruled out any changes to the already legislated stage three tax cuts as well as any tax reviews or changes beyond making multinationals pay a fairer share.
He already wasted as much & plenty more, on sub renegment & contracts & $ going to his mates & having nothing to show for it for real Australians.
ScottMorrisonMP loves to throw taxpayers money around while in election mode, then we have to pay for it later on. Currently over 70% of Australians are struggling yet he refuses to recognise their struggles .... what dimension does their guy live on😡
America Dow Jones is going down , Scomo is also over soon. Don’t let LNP to stolen Aussies’ money . No more lies
Another 1,500 workers without a future? NO scomo . You are fired!
Hey big spender! Money galore under the LNP tree
Choose wisely
Hey , what about the 83000 places that the Liberal government have promised in age care, how many are unfilled, Can you ask the Minister and government to get an HONEST answer.
And send them to their deaths in some US-led war.
How about more Doctors and Nurses ScottMorrisonMP!
And compulsory army defence or offensive military training..
I like Labor's better. A broad spectrum of free TAFE training to meet the needs of a diverse economy. How are people skilled in rocket manufacture going to help me get an affordable tradie to fix my drains?
Ok journos, here are the questions. 1. Which specific industries are they being trained for? 2. How did he reach the 1,500 number? 3. Where is the costing that identified the 108.5 million dollar expenditure. Now go do your jobs!
Too fking late. We are so desperate for tradies in my town you can wait a year to get a painter. People are resortingvto DIY plumbing and electrical repairs.
They lie about Ukraine. The last thing we need is wars. NATO will collapse under the sheer volume of lies they are pelting about Ukraine. The Biden crime family is involved in the Ukraine bioweapon labs and money laundering
Just more money wasted, whilst public health and education get ignored.
But we can't afford to staff nursing homes properly so people in care don't have to lie in their own filth or eat properly! CareNotWar
We need more nurses, not more subsidies for defence contractors.
You mean tradies to build homes and aged care professionals 😏 nope didn’t think so ………
Really? That many! Conscripted into arms' manufacture? He's a lovely man isn't he?
