Donald Trump has announced a baseline 10 per cent on all imports to the US as well as “reciprocal tariffs” on all countries of “approximately half” of what they charge America.

Anthony Albanese has had his response saying the tariffs have "no basis or logic" and that they are "not the act of a friend." 

Shadow Trade Minister Kevin Hogan told Peter Fegan on 4BC Breakfast, "History teaches us this, when countries start to have trade wars, lift tariffs, it slows down global growth and slows down everyone's economy."

"One in four jobs in Australia are directly related to an export industry and then there'd be lots of other indirect jobs related to that."

"We want the global growth to grow, it's good for our exporters and I think this is going to have a detrimental effect on us," Mr. Hogan said.

RACQ's 2024 Travel Speeds Report has revealed that Brisbane roads are getting slower at a concerning rate with peak hour continuing to expand.

RACQ’s Head of Public Policy Dr Michael Kane told Peter Fegan on 4BC Breakfast, "This is what we see every year, but what we're seeing is it's getting worse."

"We can build our way through that problem in terms of motorways, but these major roads running through the urban area, we can't keep widening these."

"We've got to think something completely different," Dr Kane continued.
