Did she actually mention the Bali pair?

'Boats have got to stop,' she told the forum.

'But have we thought about what the consequences are of pushing people back to our neighbour Indonesia? Is it any wonder that Indonesia will not engage with us on other issues that we care about, like the death penalty?'

"The starting point for first home buyers is to get a good job that pays good money"

Captain Obvious Joe Hockey

Careful reading that sentence ...if you look at it from the left it will cause you to shriek uncontrollably

[JGK]

Joe was wrong.  The starting point is to be born to a wealthy family and marry an investment banker.

Fantastic show last night. Best comedy for years.

A bit scary when someone on $80K with a partner earning the average female wage can't afford a home even with a 20% deposit (Saul Eastlake). And bracket creep is just going to make that situation even worse.

I'm assuming he was talking about Sydney?

[Blackadder]

Yes in relation in to Sydney.

So any pinkos got any serious solutions better than a good job with good pay as a start to buying a home?

Get yourself an affluent parent or spouse.

Pretty simple really.

[embee]

so that's a no from the merchant banker*

[JGK]

It's as good a solution as "get yourself a well paid job".

[embee]

but not as practical

[JGK]

but not as practical

Meh. If you are stupid but good looking it is more practical.

[lardbucket]

no good for those amongst us who are cosmetically challenged and cursed with ethics

Build more affordable housing.
Limit negative gearing on investment properties.

neither option is in the control of someone wanting to buy a house

and a good job with good pay is still required

So Shortarse was a corrupt union official.

"Receipts and emails provided to the royal commission into union corruption show that in 2005, Mr Shorten's Australian Workers Union Victorian branch invoiced a construction company for $38,228.68 to pay for 105 union memberships."

Negative gearing has no impact on house prices. They are only going up in Sydney and parts of Melbourne. Negative gearing is available regardless of where you buy.

Move a bunch of govt departments to rural areas.
