On this episode of The Grapevine, George Megolagenis talks about his article in The Good Weekend regarding Melbourne becoming Australia’s largest city. Infrastructure upgrades abound but what does this mean for Melbourne’s influence on culture and politics nationally? And Matt Cowgill, Senior Associate at the Grattan Institute and co-author of the report No free lunch: higher super means lower wage discusses the wisdom of raising Australia’s superannuation guarantee from the current 9.5 percent to twelve percent. Then, Giles Parkinson, editor of RenewEconomy phones in to discuss climate politics and whether any meaningful change has come about as a result of this summer’s bushfire disasters.
