Sky News host Peta Credlin says the government's hastiness to secure the JobKeeper package 'doesn't excuse unfairness … which pits one worker against another'.

Sky News host Peta Credlin says the government's hastiness to secure the JobKeeper package "doesn't excuse unfairness … which pits one worker against another". The package which passed on Wednesday sees businesses who earn less than a billion dollars a year in revenue be eligible if its turnover has dropped 30 per cent, but business above that threshold are only eligible if revenue has dropped by 50 per cent.

"I pay credit to the government for trying to protect us from the economic consequences, of the measures they have put in place to protects from the disease," she said. "But the more eligibility rules they've put in place, the less fair it all seems". "While voters shouldn't blame the government for the disease itself, they will blame the government for anything that's perceived to be an unfair response to it".
