Tokamak posted:You do know that this vacancy tax only cover's Melbourne's inner and middle suburbs? If you have a holiday home in the city, then tough poo poo, you can afford the tax. I don't even know why there is an exemption for them in the first place. The $100k beach shack in Melbourne is a purely hypothetical example. If it applied to a small coastal towns, then yeah it'd suck. I responded to a poster who was specifically talking holiday homes as an extension of this.

I wonder if it is just the women who are not declaring houses or if people are just white anting them. It's Ley and now Cash who have made the news for this and it seems unlikely that they're the only two.

So Paris is upping their vacant property tax from 20% of fair rental income to 60%. They don't like property speculation as well as wanting a fair and robust rental market. It turns out they really are better at doing the sophisticated thing better than we are.

And while I'm at it, if you want to be properly creeped out, you can read the Potato's maiden speech, the same day as Sussan Ley's. Of course, he has it on his own site, but I'm not going there.

Holy poo poo, no. We are an almost completely insignificant country at the arse end of the world with a minuscule population. There is no boogie man lurking in the closet waiting to jump out and attack us. The only enemies we have are the ones our government is rushing head over feet to create right here at home. We barely need the security apparatus we already have let alone a massive super-department beholden to no law or human decency.

Do you honestly see more actual government employees happening as a result of creating this Australian Homebrand Security? I don't, they want to cut jobs wherever possible because ideology. I could see people changing uniforms but that's about it. Sounds more like a power play at the Canberra level for control of the numbered buildings.

Leaked Liberal polling forecasts huge WA election loss for Premier Colin Barnett The WA Liberal Party's internal polling shows the state government is in a "far worse" position than that shown by published surveys, which point to a Coalition loss on Saturday, and the preference deal with One Nation is to blame. A source who has seen polling conducted for the WA Liberal Party one week ago said the government was facing a two-party preferred position of 57-43. This could lead to the Liberal-Nationals Coalition haemorrhaging as many as 20 seats. The party has already given up hope in several seats including the marginals of Forrestfield, held by Nathan Morton, and Perth, held by Eleni Evangel. But a source familiar with internal tactics said the party was also not expecting to hold the seats of Joondalup, which is held by Jan Norberger with a 10 per cent margin, Jandakot and Kalamunda, currently held by Health Minister John Day with a similar margin. The party believes Labor could also pick up the seats of Southern River, Darling Range, Belmont, Mount Lawley, Bunbury, Bicton, Balcatta, Wanneroo, Burns Beach and Riverton - all currently held by the Liberals with double-digit margins. The 57-43 position is far worse than Fairfax Media's ReachTel poll results published four days ago. That survey put the LNP trailing Mark McGowan's Labor party 48-52. A Galaxy poll published on the weekend in the Sunday Times newspaper had the government in a worse position of 46-54. WA Liberal state director Andrew Cox did not respond to Fairfax Media's requests for comment. Last month Mr Cox approved a deal for the Liberals to preference One Nation above their National Party Coalition partners in the Upper House in country regions. The Liberal source said the dismal forecast for this weekend's state election was the result of a major backlash to the Liberal Party's preference deal with One Nation. "Liberals want to be able to say we're for stronger borders but we're not racists," the source said.
