In a wide-ranging exclusive interview with Sky News, Mr Frydenberg discussed the impacts of state border closures in the country.
Mr Frydenberg discussed border closures by Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk, Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews and Western Australian Premier Mark McGowan. "The politics of this has been that their popularity has increased off the back of these border closures," Mr Frydenberg said. "But the impact, both on in economic terms, but also the personal tolls that it's had on people, have been actually quite profound".
