Inflation, Floods, and Preparing for War (2022x12)

: 28, 2022

Live from Australia’s fastest growing city, Brisbane. Thirteen people lost their lives in the devastating February floods and record-breaking rains impacted tens of thousands of homes and businesses in the city, with the final clean-up bill still not yet known. We’ll also discuss the ongoing cost of living crisis with consumer inflation soaring to the highest level in 20 years. Meanwhile national security remains a key campaign issue and this week the focus is on the threat of China in the Pacific. And cracks in the Coalition’s commitment to climate action are starting to show. With Stan Grant, the Panel: Stuart Robert, Minister for Employment, Workforce, Skills, Small and Family Business; Anika Wells, Labor MP for Lilley; Campbell Newman, Former Queensland Premier and Senate candidate; Larissa Waters, Greens Senator; Caitlin Byrne, Director, Griffith Asia Institute.
