Peter Dutton has accused the government of raising a white flag on providing financial relief from rising power prices, saying key election promises have been abandoned.

The opposition leader used his first budget reply speech on Thursday night to attack the Albanese government’s budget for not providing adequate cost of living measures at a time of rising inflation and electricity costs.
