‘Costing so much to do business’: John Anderson on Australia’s ‘cost of manufacturing crisis’

Former deputy prime minister John Anderson says Australia has a “cost of manufacturing crisis” as it is “costing so much” to do business in Australia.

“Like most countries in the world, we have a cost of living crisis, but we also have a cost of manufacturing crisis,” Mr Anderson told Sky News host Peta Credlin.

“It’s costing so much to do business in this country that our biggest single manufacturing sector – which is food production and fibre production and drinks production … it’s at risk.

“Can you believe it? Maybe that will be a wakeup call for people that the regions matter, and we have a government backed by Greens and independents who seemed determined to even push the government’s not only ignorance of what we do in the regions but, frankly, their desire to shut down every industry that creates wealth.”
