Space to play or pause, M to mute, left and right arrows to seek, up and down arrows for volume.
If you've lost count how many inquiries there are into supermarkets and alleged price gouging, you'd be forgiven.
There's currently a senate inquiry, an ACCC inquiry, a review of the Food and Grocery Code of Conduct by Former Labor Minister for Trade Craig Emerson and even the Australian Council of Trade Unions has commissioned the former chair of the ACCC, Allan Fels, to look at price gouging.
It's safe to say, the supermarkets are on the nose at the moment - especially as the government tries to address cost of living pressures. But are supermarkets the low hanging fruit for politicians? Have they been tossed into "the political trolley of blame"?
GUEST:
