That’s a wrap
That’s a wrap, thank you for the reading The Australian Financial Review blog for today. Some of our top stories include:
- The AFL has stood by its head of umpires Stephen McBurney after CFMEU boss John Setka threatened to cost the league millions of dollars if it did not sack the former building watchdog, claiming he was “anti-worker” and seeking to link the union campaign to players getting unwarranted 50-metre penalty kicks.
- Local winemakers have sold $86 million of stock to Chinese consumers since April, when Beijing dropped its punitive tariffs on Australian exports, Trade Minister Don Farrell says.
- Treasurer Jim Chalmers has said the transition to renewable sources of energy will demand “the biggest transformation in the global economy”, and called on the country’s private sector to fill a $200 billion-plus funding hole for cleaner energy such as solar and wind.
