I refer the Minister to George Washington University Assistant Professor Stephen Hamilton's statement:

The RBA is notoriously reticent to even come close to criticising the government. The fact they decided to point to high public demand in explaining sticky inflation is the central bank equivalent of screaming from the rooftops what the causes of the problem are.

Minister, is the RBA having to scream their concerns from the rooftops because the Prime Minister has his head buried in the sand?
