The famous faces on Epstein’s wall + The cost of your cocktail is rising

The government’s excise freeze on draught beer is being hailed as a win for pubs, but how much is it really saving us?

In this episode of The Briefing, Natarsha Belling is joined by Mick Gibb, CEO of the Nighttime Industries Association, who unpacks how this move has created a two-tier tax system that penalises small bars, live music venues, and cocktail lovers.

Headlines: A Sydney man has become the first in Australia to be charged with supplying nitazine, previously unseen Epstein letters and photographs have been published by The New York Times, and Sean “Diddy” Combs is seeking a presidential pardon.
