With the government under increasing pressure and the economy remaining soft against a backdrop of an increasingly deflationary international environment, David Llewellyn-Smith and Leith Van Onselen talk with Gunnamatta about the implications this has for the Australian economy over the coming year or more.
In a wide ranging discussion about the pressures coming onto the economic radar – including overpriced real estate, misplaced investment, rising unemployment, and Australia’s policy induced hollowing out of the external facing sector – the measures available to the Government and the RBA to address these, as well as the political implications of what is unfolding are also looked at.
The interview is in two parts (both circa 25 minutes) – both parts are provided in Mpeg and Ogg
