Interviewer: "G'day everyone, welcome to ABC Radio National. Tonight we have a special guest with us today, current Prime Minister and SDP Leader SmugDemones, welcome!"

SmugDemoness: "Thanks for having me."

Interviewer: "The past term has been rather chaotic, started with a Liberal Coalition Government and ended with a SDP Coalition one, what would you say are the SDP's biggest achievements during short term as Government?"

SmugDemoness: "For one, we managed to pass a Budget with flying colours, supported by the cross bench who gave us Confidence and Supply, under my leadership and with Anacornda as Treasurer. We implemented a budget with provided Cost of Living Relief to Australians with a $900 Energy Rebate, and made the largest investments into Housing, Infrastructure and Renewables, which will provide jobs and send our Green Transition into Overdrive.

Interviewer: "While the Cost of Living Relief was a much needed injection to support Australians, what would another term of a SDP Government mean for the average Australian?"

SmugDemoness: "Another term under the SDP will mean further reforms, we will nationalise our Energy, Resources and Infrastructure to bring cost of living down in those areas for Australians, reduced Energy, Gas and Water Bills. Reduced Public Transport fares, we will couple this by investing into manufacturing for Green Hydrogen, Railway manufacturing and Critical Minerals. These investments and measures will help real wages growth and put downward pressure on inflation while placing Australia in a position for further future growth."

Interviewer: "Rural and Regional Australia is still suffering from the consequences of the trade sanctions from China, what will your government do in foreign affairs?"

SmugDemoness: "I will continue to work to restore our relationship with China, while also expanding our trade into new regions and economies, we must diversify to reduce reliance, but we must engage with East Asia, we cannot ignore China and we are the only economy currently capable of exporting materials at scale to fuel their demand. For Rural and Regional Australia itself, we must make further investments into the potential of the Regions, expanding services and Industries which will help in the economic recovery."

Interviewer: "I'd like to focus on Agriculture, it seems the SDP want to establish a Body to aid in the negotiations between Farmers and Suppliers, mind elaborating on this policy?"

SmugDemoness: "What we are seeing from the likes of Coles and Woolworths is a disgrace, establishing a body to facilitate negotiations will allow our Farmers and Producers to bargain more effectively and be able to financially support themselves by selling their produce at a fairer price. We must do something in order to relieve the financial pressure off our Agricultural Sector otherwise it risks instability and ruining any progress in food security we have worked hard for, we need to introduce a framework to make sure our Agriculture Sector is sustainable long term."

Interviewer: "From your Health policy page, it seems you want to start to begin a Commission into Aged Care, such a sector needs drastic reforms to improve quality and a Commission will take time to issue a report, what will the SDP do in the mean time?"

SmugDemoness: "An SDP Government will increase funding and legislate reforms in areas that we have the proper recommendations for reform while the Commission is working, such as ensuring that Nurses are present as often as possible, better food and accommodation, and better activities for our Seniors. All of which are common sense reforms, and will improve the quality of life during their final years with us, allowing them to live with dignity."

Interviewer: Before we finish up, I've got one more question I'd like to ask. The SDP seem poised to reform personal income tax among other tax reforms, mind explaining what should we see should such legislation be introduced?"

SmugDemoness: "The SDP and I believe that taxation in Australia needs to be reformed to fit the current economic conditions of a Post-COVID world, as such, we will lower taxes on lower income brackets while increasing them on the highest earners, I know no one likes being taxed but it is part of everyday life and it needed to fund our social services, education and health. We will also introduce a Land Value Tax in order to spur the development of unused land, incentivising more housing supply via the LTV, we will also introduce a Excessive Profits Tax, which will provide billions in revenue, which we can then invest to fund further development to Australia's systems like Health and Education."

Interviewer: "I am afraid that is all the time we have for tonight, thank you for joining us on our program and good luck with the election."

SmugDemoness: "Thank you for having me, and for those watching, be sure to vote 1 for the SDP!"
