Yesterday afternoon I had a great conversation with Steve Austin on his 612 ABC Brisbane Drive program regarding the state government’s budget update it published on Monday. We discussed the issues I covered in my post Woefully inadequate budget update, including the futility of the gimmicky Queensland Future Fund. You can listen to the audio below.
Also, I was mentioned yesterday by John McCarthy in a great article he wrote for the In Queensland news website:
Another state bank? Business fears about Labor’s recovery plan

Chatting with Steve Austin on his radio show back in 2015, on the first day of Parliament for the Palaszczuk Government. Steve and I are sitting in the chamber of the abolished Legislative Council (i.e. upper house) of the Queensland Parliament.
Great interview Gene.
I personally view asset recycling as something we should embrace in terms of debt reduction. Dan
Thanks Dan. Yes. I think there are some no regrets asset sales/leases we could make.
