Quick Summary

Pauline Hanson announced a plan to undo recent Labor government tax reforms by reinstating the full 50% capital gains tax discount and abolishing a proposed minimum 30% tax on trusts. She also criticized the current government's support for property tycoons, stating that One Nation would allow Australians to negatively gear up to two investment properties rather than supporting a "broken model." Hanson accused Labor of harming the housing market through its budget measures and called their expanded home deposit scheme misleading, as over 1,100 households are now estimated to owe more than their homes are worth.
