'These decisions were economic and not political.
'Does everything need to be political, or can things still be funny … maybe everything isn't driven by woke DEI?'

‘Just a PR stunt': Labor to host economic roundtable as productivity falls
Deputy Nationals Leader Kevin Hogan discusses the Albanese government hosting their economic reform roundtable.
