Greens leader Adam Bandt calls on the government to support its policies of placing a 6% tax on billionaires’ wealth and placing a new super profits tax on big corporations making excessive profits.

Scott Morrison ain’t keen, unsurprisingly.

I’ve got a tip for the member for Melbourne, I won’t be listening to the Greens, Mr Speaker. And neither will the treasurer, and the Australian people, who value their jobs, Mr Speaker, who value the strength of an economy, a strength of an economy is what actually pays for essential services.

Labor’s Catherine King is on her feet. She says the government has “underspent on its infrastructure announcements by an average $1.2bn every year for the eight long years it’s been in office”. She asks how the public can be expected to trust the government.

Michael McCormack, deputy prime minister, takes the question for Scott Morrison.
