My local cafes and restaurants did really well

This is what shits me about politicians and business leaders calling for RTO on the basis that CBD businesses are suffering. Yeah? That's sad, but it's life. Other businesses are benefitting. Why should the CBD ones be artificially propped up when what people want is to work from home where they can support local suburban cafes and restaurants.

As soon as they’re on the wrong side of the free market they demand government intervention.
