@ajamesbragg So you want house prices to crash even more? I’m a homeowner, and that’s the best thing you’ve said in weeks. Also, Jim is going on about something again. x.com/JEChalmers/sta…

BREAKING: New numbers show the economy is growing at its equal fastest annual pace in almost 3 years and private sector investment is booming. Today’s National Accounts show the Australian economy grew 0.3% in the quarter, to be 2.5% higher through the year. All of the growth in the March quarter came from the private sector. This is very solid in the circumstances. It shows how resilient our economy is at a time of substantial global economic volatility.

The Housing Minister should say what we all know: house prices are too high for younger Australians.

@SkyNewsAust Of course wealthy entrenched interests are angry. Labor is trying to do something about what Tim Wilson called, in 2021, our “rigged tax system that favours the few at the expense of the many.”

@MiserlyTightwad @AussieVal10 I hate politicians lying too, and you can vote for whoever you think will tell the truth at the next election. But I like these changes and think they could be good for Australia. The world is moving too fast for Australia to wait until an election before making major changes.

Albozo did the lying and now his ministers are copping an arse whooping daily on Australian national television. So sweet to watch.

@SumrWng @AussieVal10 Your kids can still NG new builds. Change is needed because Australia isn’t working like it used to. Labor’s changes might not be perfect, but they’re worth a try. Some experts think they could really help first home buyers. x.com/AvidCommentato…
Tarric Brooker aka Avid Commentator 🇦🇺@AvidCommentator

This is one of my favourite charts ever. The share of new mortgages flowing to property investors is heavily inversely correlated with the proportion going to first home buyers. It is very much an either or sort of choice.

@Interlime @AussieVal10 Yeah- I want my kids to benefit from investments like I did, yet Albo is pulling up the ladder on them. If you think removing NG or CGT discounts will materially lower prices, Treasury's own modelling says otherwise (~2% less in couple years). The real fix is increasing supply.

Jim Chalmers’ omnibus bill to legislate the major elements of his budget neatly glues together the changes to capital gains, negative gearing and trusts, with the tax cuts for millions of workers, writes Paul Bongiorno. trib.al/8ONrShR

@AngusTaylorMP Yeah, because that worked out so well for young Australians. At least One Nation wants to limit this crap to two properties.

Australia can avoid an US-style backlash against AI if it acts now to keep Australians safe from the harms of the new technology, Assistant Minister Andrew Charlton said as he announced that the government's AI Safety Institute is now up and running.

Another good survey of research on upzoning. The largest improvements occur where demand for housing is strong. Effects grow over time. Reforms are ineffective when they are small, coupled with offsetting restrictions, or in areas with weak demand. housingmatters.urban.org/how-upzoning-a…

President Abbott is emblematic of the dwindling Liberal base: a 68yo white man already flirting with the idea of One Nation. Sure, the Libs may now hold onto a few more of the Abbotts of the world. But they'd be better off putting them all out to pasture. crikey.com.au/2026/06/02/ton…

@Interlime @AngusTaylorMP Overtaxing all investment vehicles is a bigger barrier to home ownership for young people. Do you feel like you could make alot of money before the 30%-47% ctg tax on stock, crypto and other assets.. newzealands is 0%.

We are putting forward changes to Labor’s Toxic Taxes Bill. 1.⁠ ⁠We oppose Labor’s toxic taxes on savings, housing, farmers and small business. 2.⁠ ⁠We support personal income tax relief, but Labor should not be packaging tax cuts with new toxic taxes. 3.⁠ ⁠We will force a vote on our Tax Back Guarantee, delivering bigger and better tax cuts for Australians, year after year. The Albanese Government now has a simple choice: back bigger and better personal income tax cuts or back in its broken promises and toxic taxes.

@KevinHoganMP No, they won the last election because you guys sucked and Dutton couldn’t convince Australians he would do a better job. On the bright side, the only person who could possibly be worse than Dutton is Taylor. So good luck with that.
