About this episode
The Labor party keeps saying this coming budget is full of hard decisions.
We know the budget is already in deficit, but services are underfunded and if the government wants to improve childcare, disability care and more, then money will have to come from somewhere.

Today, columnist for The Saturday Paper Paul Bongiorno on whether Labor is brave enough to make big changes to the economy.
