How many lives is that tax cut worth?

  • Summary

  • The Government has repealed various smokefree measures to ensure it keeps collecting $1.2 billion a year in tobacco taxes, in order to pay for tax cuts already being delivered to landlords.

The university's Professor Nick Wilson joins Bernard to discuss the fascinating figures resulting from that research. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
