‘Outrageous’: Wayne Swan launches scathing attack on the Reserve Bank

Former Howard government minister Peter McGauran says Wayne Swan’s comments on the Reserve Bank were “outrageous”. Mr McGauran’s remarks come after the former treasurer Wayne Swan launched a scathing attack on the central bank, accusing them of “punching itself in the face” with poor judgments. “He’s just jumped into the fray to assist his protege, Jim Chalmers,” he told Sky News Australia.
