Regular readers will be aware that MB supports the Sustainable Australia political party, which we believe represents an important political alternative to the status quo and the loony right, and offers sensible policies on population growth and fostering innovation, among other things.
I just want to remind our Sydney readers that MB’s own Dr Cameron Murray (a Sustainable Australia member) will be presenting this Sunday at an event hosted by Sustainable Australia, entitled: Housing affordability: An honest debate.
Other speakers will include Former Labor leader, Mark Latham, as well as Daniel Cohen, First Home Buyers Australia co-founder.
The key details are as follows:
Where?
Crows Nest Centre (Johnson Hall) 2 Ernest Pl, Crows Nest NSW.
When?
1pm (for 1:15) – 3pm, Sunday 19 March
Also for our Sydney readers, Sustainable Australia’s president, William Bourke, will tonight give a talk at the Imperial Hotel, Paddington, on the topic: Can population close the sustainability group?
The event is being hosted by TILT Organisation (A Sydney think tank).
The key details are as follows:
Where?
Imperial Hotel Paddington, 252 Oxford Street, Paddington.
When?
7pm – 9pm, tonight, Thursday 16 March.
We hope some of our Sydney readers can make these events.
Will this be recorded and made available to other States? Sydney =/= Australia…
Not sure. I’ll check with William Bourke.
Be sure you tell them the truth about Land Tax and not your biased version, Leith.
Tell the audience the following truth:
You are absolutely blind, Leith.
BLIND AND IN DENIAL OF YOUR OWN PROSPER AUSTRALIA REPORTS
Your Professor Cameron Murray clearly states that it is an objective of Canberra’s Universal Land Tax to reduce the amount of land homeowners can have. In other words…Live in small dog box apartments and dog box boundary to boundary houses on very small blocks of land.
Murray says, in Orwellian speak, on page six or the report (my capitalization):
Many specific objectives were nested within
the overarching ones. For example, one objective
outlined in the Review was for INCREASED DENSIFICATION TO PROVIDE EFFICIENCY BENEFITS of
lower infrastructure costs for new dwellings
and commercial uses and meet equity objectives
by charging rates based on the value of
the consumption of land.

The title of the report is:
The First Interval – Evaluating ACT’s Land Value Tax Transition – Full Report
You must have integrity if you are going to speak and write for public consumption, Leith, and you must be seen as honest and genuine.
Sooooo NT,
Leith and Cam Murray are biased when it comes to Land Tax and you are not. These gents have argued clearly and succinctly why they endorse it whereas you clog the comments section with straw-men, slippery slopes and misdirection whenever the topic appears.
Footsore, don’t forget any CGT wind backs, super reform, reverse mortages or basically, anything that might take away his milk cow. Naturaltrust is all about himself and his investment properties and fuck you, me or anyone that stands in the way of it. Classic example of what MB continuously rails against in all that is wrong with this country.
Sustainable Australia does not align with the Aussie Battler tag line. It immediately screams of a party more extreme than the greens.
Change the name or you will forever not get votes at the ballot no matter how much sense you make.
Sensible Australia?
+1
O.P.P !
Are you down with O.P.P ?
What name do you suggest?
Sustainable Australia is a good name.
+1. I would be going with a name that emphasises prosperity of younger Australians.
Sustainable Australia is a great name. From the political centre, SA boasts a broad, sustainability based agenda, to secure an economically, environmentally and socially sustainable Australia. http://www.votesustainable.org.au/policies
Listen to the screeching coming from Domainfax over the truth about foreign buyers emerging:
https://www.domain.com.au/news/fact-check-claims-foreigners-buying-10pc-of-nsw-real-estate-bogus-20170315-guyhvw/
What a farce.
If a foreign national is in the country for more than 200days they are deemed “not foreign” and not liable for the levy?
