Further interest rate rises will be ‘dangerous’ for Labor

Northern Territory correspondent Matt Cunningham accuses Labor of attempting to make RBA Governor Philip Lowe to be the “bogeyman” for raising interest rates to fight inflation. “If we see further interest rate rises, the government’s been able to blame the past 10 on the previous government and on the Reserve Bank,” Mr Cunningham told Sky News host Sharri Markson. “That’ll be dangerous for Labor if those rates are still going up.”
