‘Political dynamite’: Prime Minister urged to consider inheritance taxes

Especially considering tax has already been paid on it at one time or another.

Had it here in one form or another for over 300 years. Always been unpopular.

Currently 40% on your estate over a threshold of £325k. No tax payable if you inherit from your spouse.

Hi,
   Joh was the first premier here to drop the inherency taxes, so all the retired folk moved to Qld to avoid them. Why else would one move to The Gold Coast?

Or you could tax those people more that earn more than say $250k - you know MPs, Senators, Senior public servants, CEOs ...

not as long as you pay a fee, apply for permits which also cost.... its allllll about the money... how many swamps have they claimed... ?

‘Recompense for loss’: Aboriginal land council defends claim for $100 million Balmoral Beach reserve

The head of an Aboriginal land council has defended the group’s bid to claim a $100 million chunk of land in one of Sydney’s most affluent suburbs.

Legalised extortion. Get the dopey whitefella to give you the land by claiming your great grandmother once cooked a goanna under that tree over there, then lease it back to the dopey whitefella for big dollars. Save you having to make that troublesome trip to the dole office fella every two week ay bloke?

With the cost of living increases, higher mortgages etc the tourism accommodation market would already be suffering, so let’s tax them, what a knob. A feeble attempt at raising revenue or getting landlords to sell their properties to assist in lessening housing crisis.

I’ve not much of grasp on Australian politics at any level, but he looks like a young Sir Les Patterson to me. Are they related?

I often wonder how far these people go for their beliefs, do they own vehicles of any description, are their clothes all natural fibres, ist their footwear leather only, do they grow and process their own food, are there any plastics in  their homes. I wonder how much they actually sacrifice when they carefully research where and from what they use is made and ultimately how it is transported to them. I’m sure they don’t all get around on horse and carts.
