I remember in October 2024 #Greens (@greens.org.au) tabling a bill to end #PriceGouging and #Labor voted against it.

Now @australianlabor.bsky.social have adopted it.

I remember #TheGreens getting an extra 1 BILLION our of #ALP for #RentToBuy Scheme.

I do but #Labor's policies on those areas are half-arsed in most instances.

Instead of 20% which just covers the indexation, why not #DebtForgiveness? Wipe the lot.
Instead of the cooked #RentToBuy scheme - design something that will actually help us buy a #HOME!!!

Nah, #Labor lost me years ago. I got tired of the #VotersRemorse and regret when they prove how timid they are.

This year:
20% off #HECS - helps no-one.
#RentToBuy Scheme - helps no-one (unless you're rich).
"No new #CoalMines" on the day of mine EXPANSIONS...
Bowing to #IsraeliLobby.

etc.

#HAFF will always be tied to the #Neoliberal property market.
How does #Labor's #RentToBuy Scheme help anyone?

At least, #Greens got an additional $1 billion in funding for public & community housing. Total of $3B is 6 X the maximum the govt was initially willing to spend on an annual basis.

This is what Max opposed:...

#Labor's pissweak #RentToBuy Scheme:

This is why:

#RentToBuy Scheme was a joke!

He is a #renter himself and has insight into what it is like to be a renter in #Neoliberalist Australia.
Unlike many MPs who own several properties and are landlords.
He was correct in objecting to #RentToBuy Scheme/ #HAFF. We progress at a snail's pace approving #ALP's half-arsed measures!

Yeah, and have you had a good look at #Labor's #RentToBuy Scheme?
It helps literally NO ONE! Unless you already are well-off financially.
