It has been a busy year in Australian politics.  We voted no to the Voice to Parliament. Three state premiers resigned. The government legislated industrial relations changes and housing affordability measures.  But the throughline of the year, and the main concern of ordinary voters, was the state of the economy, and the government’s handling of it.  We had the scourge of stubborn inflation and the RBA’s ratcheting up of interest rates. And we had a housing affordability problem that politicians have finally acknowledged is actually a crisis. Today on Inside Politics, economics reporters Shane Wright and Rachel Clun join Jacqueline Maley to talk about the economy, and what we might expect of it in 2024. Cut through the noise of federal politics with news, views and expert analysis from Jacqueline Maley.
