Reeves says inflation fall shows ‘plan for change is working’

The chancellor will be making a grave error if she lets her guard down over today’s figures. Those already struggling with the sky-high cost of living simply won’t be able to withstand another hammer blow to their pockets, such as from resident Trump’s global trade war.

$500 for the nosebleeds? Lady Gaga fans furious over ticket prices for Australian shows

The little monsters are not happy. Lady Gaga fans have swamped social media to complain about exorbitant ticket prices for the pop star’s Australian concerts, with many speculating that dynamic pricing is involved – a claim the official ticketing agency for the Melbourne and Brisbane shows, Ticketmaster, has denied.

Off the back of her chart-topping album Mayhem, Lady Gaga is heading to Australia for the first time in 11 years, with Live Nation bringing the Mayhem Ball to Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane in December. Ticketmaster, which is owned by Live Nation, is responsible for the ticket sales in Melbourne and Brisbane.
