Yes Albanese has hung his hat on this sole parent/public housing background for a while now and on several occasions.
The tax concession changes had to happen and I’m glad they did. The results from doing that are already starting to flow through with house prices taking a dip in a few of the major cities. That will continue to flow through, especially now that Chinese investors are bailing. This is all good news for future home owners and it will flow through to renters eventually as well.
The missing bits are still state pubic housing investment and a restoring of a decent trades training and vocational system by scrapping the privatised garbage we have. That hasn’t just destroyed trades training, it’s also destroyed the travelling seasonal work we used to have (the one backpackers also use) because private job companies won’t allow people to leave the area they’re registered in. They want to make money out of them with regular contact interviews and shitty courses.
Yeah the fight to keep that card out was a long, drawn out one and they won’t stop with it either, they will try it again and again until it’s introduced. It’s coming back, make no mistake about that. I guess because they were so incompetent in government, they weren’t able to get full Senate backing on it. They were forced to do things during Covid that led to raised payments as well…because they were incompetent and the backlash was strong.
It sucks; both my sons NDIS plan and our living conditions were actually better under that Coalition government than they are now; a fact that those on the left and some centrists don’t want to hear. I’m not alone, there’s quite a few NDIS recipients and carers who have or will lose out because Butler thinks no further than a spreadsheet and fraud by some providers.
For the Greens, while I find that yeah, they vote a lot with the coalition, its rarely or never with the same rationale and usually fit our benefit rather than detriment. Usually. The vape bill was an example of the opposite. So were the social network laws. I find that every election though, I’m turning up with the Greens being the clear, best option. I don’t see them as obstructionists; I helped put those Senators there to block bad legislation and improve weak, they’re as a rule doing that. They generally oppose Labor’s NDIS amendment bill and they’ve gotten some good concessions on it so far.
For the teals…here we have as you say a bit of a flip flop. Most are inner city elites, with the main topic being the environment but we have a couple of socially aware among them like Ryan. They need to be watched though, we saw some opposition to the housing tax concession changes, because of course they use rentals to reduce their tax bill.
Pocock, I can say nothing about but positive. This is an elite, fighting for the lower classes. Hanson I can’t add anything more because you’re spot on, that’s exactly what PHON is.
But yes, it’s a field of shit all right and the best we can do is avoid stepping in…any shit really.
