In earlier times no doubt there were pillars of journalistic rectitude who felt the need to point out that encouraging people to lie on their taxes is not something a government ought to do. But that’s a very 20th Century way of looking at things.
Peter Dutton has unveiled his bold new plan to allow first homebuyers to tax deduct their mortgage repayments in a bid to win over young voters.
Fresh polling has shown the damage done by Peter Dutton’s shaky start to the federal election campaign — but voters are not behaving how you’d think.
Anthony Albanese is far more popular than Peter Dutton. If the Opposition wants to win, they need to sort themselves out quickly, writes James Campbell.
Victorians were told the $15bn Metro Tunnel would deliver turn-up-and-go trains, doing away with the need for a timetable — but months away from the grand opening, the leaked project map reveals it won’t deliver its promises.
Given he’d just received upsetting personal news, Dutton understandably had a tough start to the debate before Albanese channelled his inner game show host, writes James Campbell.
This election is increasingly looking like it’ll end up being a big disappointment for Coalition supporters but if the Liberals lose, they’ll have no one to blame but themselves.
Peter Dutton has driven key voters back to Anthony Albanese, according to a shock poll which has also found a massive change for Labor, as the election still remains contestable.
Unless the Coalition can find a way of fixing this, and soon, the election could be heading to an outcome that is not necessarily to its advantage, argues James Campbell.
