Labor's flagship housing fund has fallen flat on its face with not a single home being completed under the ‘Housing Australia Future Fund’.

The flagship scheme was legislated almost 18 months ago with the Prime Minister saying in 2021 that 30,000 new homes would be built over the next five years, but so far, funding has only been agreed on for 800 homes.

Shadow Minister for Home Ownership Andrew Bragg told Peter Fegan on 4BC Breakfast, "The government's had three years to build a house and they haven't built a single one so far under this program."

The Albanese Government will spend $8.5 billion across four years to commit to universal bulk-billing, expected to make nine out of 10 GP visits free by 2030.

The Prime Minister has said, "I want every Australian to know they only need their Medicare card, not their credit card, to receive the healthcare they need."

Federal Age Care Minister Anika Wells told Peter Fegan on 4BC Breakfast, "The Labor Government answer is that we provisioned the vast majority of this money back in the mid-year economic update."

The weather bureau is predicting a potential tropical cyclone system to form off the Queensland coast as early as Sunday.

There is a 25 per cent chance it could form by Saturday which would increase to 60 per cent by Monday.

9News Weather Guru Gary Youngberry told Peter Fegan on 4BC Breakfast, "It's a fine line between when it's worth mentioning or not, and it's worth mentioning now."

"I think we're definitely going to see a cyclone, not before Sunday, it's a tropical low now, probably by Monday," Mr. Youngberry said.

With the 2025 federal election fast approaching one of the biggest questions on voters minds is how the government plans on managing the economy and who has the keys to turning Australia's financial situation around.

Minister for Finance Katy Gallagher told Peter Fegan on 4BC Breakfast, "One of our key challenges, because inflation was rising when we came to government, was how do we get it under control whilst providing cost of living help without adding to inflation?"

"So, you can't just chuck money out the door because that would have an inflationary impact, but we could do things like we've tried to do with energy bill relief, with investments in Medicare and childcare and medicines, so that it's sort of a more controlled way of helping people."

The job isn't done, there's more to do," Minister Gallagher said.
