haven't you heard Chalmers' explanation of the wage rises?

so of course wage rises haven't "kept up with cost of living". would you approve if workers had been given 10% rises? it would have been catastrophic for the economy and made cost of living even higher.

ps I note you still haven't provided your source for your earlier dubious claim.

What is catastrophic is ordinary people cannot find a place to rent and put food on the table.
People are dumpster diving in order to be able to feed there families while Albo allows the major supermarkets to rip people off .
