Weekend Wrap 4 June 2023: Minimum wage win, RBA gaffes, Green housing hocum and the Ben Roberts Smith verdict

Ben Davison gets under the hood of the minimum wage decision, the
cuts the bosses wanted and how millions of Australian's will be
better off as a result of the work of the Australian Union
movement.  If you're not already a member join now at
australianunions.org.au/wow because unions have won an 8.6%
increase in the minimum wage, a 5.75% in award wages and
unionised workers get paid an average of 26% more!


The RBA governor said that we need more people to live in each
"dwelling" during his senate estimates appearance and Ben breaks
down why that's such a gaffe and how The Greens Party
spokesperson against Labor's housing policy used his appearance
on Insiders today to effectively double down on the conditions
that lead economists to the idea that the housing crisis won't be
solved with more housing anytime soon.


Ben Roberts Smith lost his defamation trial this week.  Ben
explores what the trial was about, what it means Ben Roberts
Smith probably did, why it impacts our view of the defence force
and how this demonstrates that billionaire and corporate owned
media fuels, feeds and festers toxicity for its own
purposes.
