The Latest

Friday, 9 May 2008
The Prime Minister has announced that next week's Federal Budget will not be another 'one-year wonder' but instead aim to address long-term problems, including inflation.

GetUp is pushing hard for this budget, delivered on May 13, to be the world's first climate change budget, beginning with removing the billions of dollars worth of subsidies to the polluting industries.

Sign our Biscuit Budget petition and let the government know what you want your taxes to be spent on.
