Independent senator Jacqui Lambie bags government’s $15.8bn budget surplus

Outspoken independent senator Jacqui Lambie says the federal government’s $15.8bn budget surplus would be better spent helping struggling Australians “put bread and milk on the table”.

The May budget forecast a $9.3bn surplus for 2023-24, but the final budget outcome has pushed that up to $15.8bn, giving Labor the first back-to-back budget in 15 years.
