Australian unemployment is essentially at 11% and youth unemployment is >25%. Both are going to trend higher this next quarter. I think it's a distraction from the poor handling of the recession.

This will grab the news for the day so they can end the parliamentary week without the weekend news being about everyone lack of a job. I can't really see any 4d chess moves from the Australian Government here.
