Mike's Minute: The Budget showed the bigger picture is a disaster

Best of Business · May 18, 2023 · 2m

The real value of the Budget for me is not the so-called lolly scramble people seem to expect each year.

A bus trip here, a prescription there and a handful of EV chargers - that's rats and mice.

The real value of a Budget is the big picture and the big picture is a disaster.

For what it's worth, the gaming deal is not bad. But then again, it's classic Labour. Yes, we give rebates for film, but not for gaming.

Why not?

So they fix that. But do they? Our deal is still outdone by the Australians. So where are you going to go to make your games?

Anyway, to the big stuff.

There is more debt, much…
