MB radio: The Treasury of Common Sense
Advertisement
MB have a new weekly radio segment with 2GB’s Luke Grant, called the Treasury of Common Sense.
In this morning’s interview we discussed:
- Housing supply, the rental crisis, and The Green’s stunt to freeze rent increases for two years.
- The Pharmacy Guild’s egregious lobbying against two-month prescriptions, which would save the federal budget a billion dollars and increase convenience for consumers.
- The latest inflation figures, and why they are no ‘smoking gun’ one way or the other for the RBA in its decision to hike or hold rates next week.
- How Australia’s rental crisis will place upward pressure on inflation for the next year or so.
Before anybody asks, this is not sponsored content.
MB has never (and will never) pay for media appearances. Nor have we ever been paid for such appearances.
