I'm quite alarmed by these small bar and club closures. It's almost like the Liberals' move to massively hike licence fees was a terrible idea or something... EFTPOS killing the cash rinsing business is probably more their issue. I'd say inflation, rising cost of living, high interest rates, and in...
