A heated debate has erupted, with the Prime Minister expressing their outrage over the portrayal of ministers using Higgins' claims as a weapon.
ANZ CEO Nuno Matos has stepped into the spotlight, offering a cautionary message to the government regarding its decarbonization plans. While defending the bank's loans to fossil fuel companies and gas projects, Matos acknowledged that the decision to cut 4500 jobs was not something he took pride in.
