You can add Ed Husic to the list of people spreading the ‘calm the farm’ message about the Trump tariffs.

He told the ABC a little earlier:

A big focus of our government has been to strengthen our economic resilience to help us weather events like the US’s self-imposed Inflation Day. I know they’re calling it Liberation Day but it’s really just about jacking up their own inflation. We have highly-sought-after in-demand exports because we’re a quality producer across a range of areas. If there are other countries that want to pay more for that because of stuff that they do themselves, that’s on them but we will, no doubt, continue and we want to continue making that high-quality product, which is why we’ve announced across a range of areas in the last 24-hours measures to sharpen up and strengthen even further our ability to be economically resilient and to ensure that our product can get exported to willing buyers in other parts of the world
