‘Ridiculous’: Sussan Ley slams Jim Chalmers for ‘trying to talk tough’

Deputy Opposition Leader Sussan Ley has slammed Treasurer Jim Chalmers as “ridiculous” for “trying to talk tough”. This comes after Mr Chalmers branded Opposition Leader Peter Dutton as “dangerous” during a speech at the John Curtin Research Centre in Melbourne. “I think Jim Chalmers is trying to talk tough to his Labor colleagues – that’s what I think he’s actually doing,” Ms Ley told Sky News Australia. “It’s ridiculous to suggest what he’s doing in the face of the evidence.”
