Much of the inflation is “self-imposed” by the current government, according to the Herald Sun’s Business Commentator Terry McCrann.

“We didn’t have to have the price increases in energy; we didn’t have to have the price increases in gas,” Mr McCrann told Sky News host

Peta Credlin.“Getting rid of all the cheap, reliable coal fire power and creating this energy shortage which has been totally unnecessary.”

🤣

The Central Bank is bringing the world to it's knees and these puppets here are going along with it.

Absolute bullshit. Stooge McCrann is the worst economic commentator in the country. A stooge and a liar all rolled into one.

This is Albos plan↗️↗️↗️↗️↗️↗️↗️↗️↗️ Suckers voted for fools 😂😂😂😂😂😂

How the hell would he know? I still see the damage done by the Morrison cult but these wankers would have us believe otherwise.

Thank you Sky (Murdoch Paid), thank you McCann (Murdoch paid) for your unbiased authentic and misguided inaccurate opinion piece. You both are Murdoch mouthpieces and have no credibility! Might I add you are on Hw wiring side of this, which history will note

He’s definitely a cross between a peanut and a budgie , just not as a art as either

He's right, and that's why raising interest rates isn't working: Disruptions to the supply chain and excessive government spending isn't curbed by interest rates.

Wow, How long did it take to work that out ? I wonder! The Government working very hard screwing the pigs in pen look at Robodebt always blaming unemployed people and making sure poverty is expanded such a way that it gives impression that they work very hard to keepscrew people

Bending for Rupert to get a grasp of his coat tails while wrecking our country.

Totally agree.

When there is a gas reserve of the coast of NSW that would serve the whole east coast of Aus for the next 60 years. The energy crisis is totally self inflicted. Only government bureaucracy and red tape holding the Pep 11 project back. The government could fix it if they wanted to

Inflation-Cost of Living Remember 2022 Election Albo Promised to lower the cost of living. Jan 2023 Inflation is running at 7-8% a 32 year high After 3 years of the Morrison Gov 2022, inflation 5.1%

High energy prices, increased government spending, subsidies to unreliable, low productivity, all have Labor government fingerprints on it. Other OECD and developing countries show the same symptoms because of the same causes.

Totally agree with what Terry said about the self-imposed inflation figures on gas and electricity.

Yeah skynews quoting the Herald Sun to support its murdoch right wing propaganda lies and drivel. That’s funny as fuck…oh and you still have zero credibility. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Bollocks

I’m old enough to remember when Terry McCrann was taken seriously as a business journalist. Now he’s just another old man amongst the Murdochrats yelling at the clouds.

Rubbish, world wide inflation main driver higher energy costs

So Australias Federal government has imposed inflation on the entire western world? is not even a good parody

Weren't the Liberals making excuses for inflation in the lead up to the election? Saying something like how we're doing better than the rest of the world?

😱no way labour could have chalked up such a mess in 6 months inflation data is also backward looking. If anything fossil fuel dependency is one of the culprits along with corporate greed, profiteering & market collusion. All very sensitive topics for news corpse though 🤔

Bullshit

Bullshit from the lachlan and rupert shit factory

Sky Noos, the Liberal conspiracy tv network hosted by RWNJ’s pretending to be journalists, some call themselves contributors, the duds call themselves commentators. At the end of the day, they’re cooked!

Same usual murdoch hacks printing the same usual predictable BS

Oh what bullshit

Terry , the climate and Covid scientist and part-time economist. Totally owned by the overseas murdochguttermedia

What crap!

Let's ignore that it was skyrocketing in the first two quarters of last year

this is ridiculous - inflation all over the world with commonalities of covid handouts and impact of ukraine war. be serious

How many chins can one man have?

Oh yeah it's got nothing to do with the previous government blowing out the debt....

Power prices are pushing the price of everything up. Don’t worry but, Albo has a plan. 👍

Is this the same McCrann who so vigorously opposed the Banking RC. Said it was a waste of time and waste of money, a Labor witch-hunt? Virtually said the banks were pure and above board. Is this the same McCrann?

According to the Herald Sun, with their paid propagandists. No credibility at the clown show on Exhibition Street.

terry mcCrann is a stooge look at the energy platform from the libs for the past 9 years - a debacle

and still not a word about robodebt

Did Rupert tell you to blame the government so we would all 'look over there' while his fossil fuel mates make massive profits? Amid opposition to gas price caps, Australia’s resources companies make record profits

Every major country is experiencing inflation, Terry McCrann following the Murdoch line.

What a goose 😅🤦‍♂️
