Here’s a red hot question for the Big 4 banks: Why haven’t you passed on the cash rate cuts to variable rate home loan customers?

Instead, let’s talk about what’s happening while many of us are distracted by politics:
As we all know by now, the RBA threw the kitchen sink at the economy on Tuesday, including cutting the official cash rate by 0.15% to 0.1%.
(It also did a lot of other things which were far more important, economically!)
