Wow.

Must be a struggle to balance the budget with a family income of $440k per annum!!

Exactly. How dare the labor government cut back on the tax cut for high income earners. Now this poor family will only get a $4000 tax cut each instead of the $8000 each that was proposed by the libs. Now they can’t afford to buy property without that extra $8000 between them. /s

Imo if they can’t afford property on 440k a year the extra 8k in tax they would have originally got wouldn’t make a fucking difference but the extra $800-1400ish for low and middle income earners sure as shit will make a difference the those families.

Not sure if he's ever really a league supporter at all mate. Many say he's a union man and it was all an act, along with his curry cooking. Anyway, I'm happy to see Albo has grown some balls and I reckon he's snookered Dutton on this one. Lol.

Dutton is pursuing Albanese over his 'broken promise' but whether that will sway the Dunkley by-election remains to be seen

The vast majority of taxpayers in Dunkley will be better off under the government's tax cuts. That's the first problem for Peter Dutton. But then there is the question of the opposition's response, writes Michelle Grattan.

Bit of a master stroke by Albanese? 87% of Duttons electorate will be better off under the new tax cuts... he cant logically campaign against it can he? lol

I didnt even read the article.. are they saying they cant afford a house with that income? lol

Nice to see the long game win out. The LNP used the very same issue to wedge ALP at the time and now the ALP have returned the favour. Nothing those dick heads can say now that doesn't just out them as what they truly are.

Did you see Mr Potato Head wanted to call an election "and let the people decide"? ...yes he is that dumb

They didn’t say house but, and I quote “our budget has to change now. It’s going to put back our ability to buy a property. It halts all our plans to progress for several years”

Like fuck me, if they can’t afford a house on 440k/year they need a slap up the head and to wake the fuck up from whatever dream state they’re in.

Yeah probably or something next door to kirribilli house. if 8k a year is the thing holding them back from buying property they’ve got bigger financial problems than not getting a bigger tax cut.

I drink down the local here and Fucking Woolworths have bought the lease on it. So today which is Australia Day the fuckers have a 10% surcharge on the over priced fucking beers. I'm not being a cunt or anything but next week they have a fucking Kiwi national day down there and no extra charge on the beers. Fuck Kiwis they come over here for fucking nothing.

 

[Pixie]

Woolworths don’t own pub/hotels/liquor/gambling assets anymore. Endeavour group might have purchased it through their alh hotels holdings but neither of those are Woolworths anymore since the demerger. Woolworths isn’t even the largest shareholder in endeavour group anymore.

They previously owned 85%. They keep selling more and more. The point is it isn’t Woolworth, while they may be one of the major shareholders they only get to vote on decisions like who is ceo etc they don’t make day to day buisness decisions.

Also look at the combined total of blackrock/vanguard etc and it’s still less than any of the 3 main shareholders. This doest even consider that blackrock etc are just investment firms investing for others. Like I own eft’s through vanguard does that mean vanguard owning shares of endeavour bad and “controlling” or does it mean I’m invested with my money into those companies?

 

[Pixie]

But Woolworths are still a shareholder ? Are they still shareholders Rezza or fucking not
