I’ll be speaking at Politics in the Pub on Friday May 29, along with Jacob Saulwick from the SMH. The Location is the Gaelic Club, Level 1 (Tel. 9212 1587) 64 Devonshire Street Surry Hills–just 50 metres or so from the Chalmers Street exit from Central Station.
The topic will be rather apposite to the most recent blog entry: “The Rudd-Swan Budget 2009 – Whose Interests Will It Serve?”
The event starts at 6pm and finishes at 7.45pm, after which anyone who wants to soldier on can join us for dinner at a nearby restaurant.

Just came across an awesome quote from CalculatedRisk:
From Bloomberg: William Seidman, Who Led Cleanup of S&L Crisis, Dies … In his memoir [published in 1993], Seidman offered a set of lessons learned. They included:
“Instruct regulators to look for the newest fad in the industry and examine it with great care. The next mistake will be a new way to make a loan that will not be repaid.”
How true.

Steve,
Any chance you could record your talk in Newcastle or Sydney and post a link to it in mp3?
For the forum, I’ve posted some presentations here on the global, US and Australian economies:
