Well, actually, I mean the economy was in good shape going into the Iran conflict. Now we were growing strongly. We had low inflation, uh low interest rates, we had good forecasts of growth uh over the coming year. Yes, there'll be a hit to inflation, yes, there'll be a slowdown in growth as a function of that crisis. But I think we've deliberately managed that crisis with a view of coming out the other side and and popping off on our foils, you know, as quickly as we possibly can. So um, you know, when you look at it, Jamie, you know, we had nine percent growth in tourism for the year. We've had 11% growth in international education. You've had 12 billion dollars more of exports, much of it, you know, a lot of it coming out of primary industries as well. You know, look at that record number, almost six billion dollars out of Zespery. Um, you know, there's been some fantastic stories. Holter, uh the progress are making uh internationally uh now is fantastic. So, you know, we've got um some good momentum in the economy, uh, but we've got to get through this crisis, no doubt about it. Um it's uh it'll take a hit to inflation and and growth. But um our job isn't to not make the mistakes of COVID, which you see some other countries around the world doing. Uh we want to get out of it uh quickly and tidally.
