Australians want ‘answers’ on rising supermarket prices

Former Labor senator Stephen Conroy says a lot of Australians are “hurting” with cost-of-living. The chief executives of Coles and Woolworths have been grilled in a Senate inquiry in Canberra. This comes amid accusations and whistleblower testimony of the big supermarkets’ price gauging of both customers and suppliers. The inquiry’s focus is on whether these supermarkets are benefitting from the cost-of-living crisis. Mr Conroy told Sky News Australia that people are looking for “answers” on the supermarket prices.
