Can Labor find its mojo?
Labor’s housing tax changes are easing price growth, but the party’s primary vote has slumped 23% in Secret Harbour and 31% in Farrer.
- Labor-Held Secret Harbour saw its primary vote drop 23 per cent in an August byelection, while the Liberal Party vote in Take Farrer dropped 31 per cent in May; both seats fell to One Nation.
- Albanese Labor's housing tax reforms, including changes to negative gearing, have become mired in controversy after policies ruled out before the last election were introduced since, viewed by critics as broken promises.
- Labor MPs reject comparisons to the "gold standard" Hawke-Keating period, arguing structural reforms occur only once; voters remain skeptical of the government's "natural party" narrative and grander vision.
- Morrison-Era blights like the GST formula and the Job-Ready Graduates outrage remain unaltered, leaving the government's reform story feeling bitsy and terrestrial despite policy achievements.
- Australia's national political landscape currently lacks confident, inspiring leadership, whereas in Canada, Mark Carney offers a unifying, daring typology that contrasts with the cautious, repetitive lexicon defining current Australian politics.
