What happened to budget repair? - a podcast by ABC Radio

Two years isn't really that much time.

But in politics, it may as well be two decades, and when you throw in a pandemic, it's basically eternity.

In 2019, the Treasurer Josh Frydenerg used to talk up a budget surplus often and loudly, before COVID-19 forced him to spend up big to stave off economic disaster.

So with an election on the horizon, will Josh Frydenberg return to the surplus goal?

Or will politics get in the way?
