  1. Nothing is sacred in this country. Nothing.
    Australia isn't a nation; it's a balance sheet. Every patch of dirt, every slice of coastline, every piece of our common heritage is just an asset waiting for the right bidder. We don't have landmarks, we have listings.
    The latest proof? Hamilton Island—a place woven into the fabric of Aussie holidays, memories, and identity—has just been sold for $1.2 BILLION to the private equity giant Blackstone.
    Because why should something belong to the people's imagination when it can belong to a spreadsheet? Why should a place hold memories when it can hold a leveraged buyout?
    From the ports to the power lines, the farms to the islands, it's all for sale. We are merely tenants, watching as the title deeds to our own country are auctioned off to the highest global bidder.
    Our icons aren't in museums; they're on the block. And the auctioneer's gavel never stops swinging.

  7. Opposition Leader Peter Dutton might have done us a favour, makes Labor's case that tax breaks for landlords ought to be restricted to those who build homes.

    As part of his budget reply speech on Thursday night he promised to stop foreigners buying existing Australian homes.

    He didn't only want to stop foreigners buying existing homes to live in, something they are able to do while here temporarily, as long as they they sell within three months of moving out.

    He also wanted to stop them buying existing Australian homes to let to renters. He wanted to stop them being landlords. Not because landlords deprive us of homes to live in (they don't) but because they deprive us of homes to own.

    Every existing home that is owned by a landlord is a home that isn't owned by an owner-occupier. It's maths. #housingcrisis #rentalcrisis #auspol #aus4sale

  8. Average Australian can't afford to buy a house anywhere in the country.

    Australians aiming to buy a home face grim prospects as new research reveals the daunting income required to afford a house in any capital city. Data from the Parliamentary Library, commissioned by the Greens, indicates that to purchase a home, a borrower would need to earn $164,400 annually—nearly two-thirds more than the average salary of $98,218. #auspol #LuckyCountry #aus4sale #BetterNotBigger

  9. #Australia has one of the most foreign-owned economies of any western country. Here is a list of 320+ foreign companies that are generating more than $200 million in revenues out of Australia each year, whether by internal sales or exports.  #auspol #aus4sale #auseconomy #multinationals

  10. #Australian household earning the median income of $105,000 can now only comfortably afford 13% of homes on the market, the lowest share since the relevant data was first collected in 1995. #auspol #Australia #aus4sale

  11. The notion that #privatising large public companies like #Qantas, #Telstra, the #CBA, #Medibank and #energy companies to crony #capitalists was ever going to benefit the #Australian public seems so deluded now, given how history has evolved.
    Privatising Qantas has to be one of the most flagrant acts of self-harm committed by any Australian government.
