Breaking Down the Budget with Larissa Waters
6/3/202655 min
In the weeks since the 2026-27 Federal Budget was announced there's been a lot of misinformation to navigate, complicated tax lingo to get around, and of course a bunch of terrible AI content. Abbie sits down with Senator Larissa Waters, leader of the Australian Greens, to talk about what these changes actually mean for the everyday Aussie, what could have been done better, and why One Nation are leading in the polls.
