‘Your power bills go up’: Sky News host raises concerns over Qld’s $1,000 cash rebate

Sky News host Caleb Bond has raised concerns over Queensland Premier Steven Miles’ $1,000 cash rebate, claiming it is a “stimulus package” and not a subsidy for power bills. “If you can spend this money on anything you like, it’s essentially a stimulus package,” Mr Bond said. “Now what happens when you give people a stimulus package? They bloody well spend it. “And what happens when people spend lots of money en masse? It creates inflation. “What happens when you have inflation? Your power bills go up.”
