from Socially Democratic · host Stephen Donnelly
"Politics is about choices—who do you stand with and for, and who are you against?"⭐ The debate over the capital gains tax discount is here to stay. Many Gen Z's and Millennials are fully aware that they will be unable to afford a home without major tax reform - and that's only the start.But with older and asset-rich Australians benefiting heavily from the CGT discount, is it too politically dangerous to give it the axe?🧨 Plus - the Epstein files have recently poured fuel on the dumpster fire that is UK Labour. With the resignation of Morgan McSweeney as Keir Starmer's Chief of Staff, what does it mean for the beleaguered party?💰 And - who should benefit from the wealth of Australia's mining industry? We examine the corporate and foreign influences that stymied Kevin Rudd's Mining Super Profits Tax in 2010. This, plus more listener questions in our February Mailbag.#CapitalGainsTax #HousingCrisis #AustralianPolitics #auspol #AlbaneseGovernment #OneNationParty #EpsteinFiles #UnionMovement #AIRegulation #PoliticalStrategy #VictorianElection2023 #UKPolitics #LaborParty #PoliticalLeadership #MillennialsAndGenZ #UnionRights #WorkplaceSafety #AustralianLaborParty #TaxReform #HousingAffordability #PoliticalConflict #FutureOfWork #AIInWorkplaces #OneNationImpact #EpsteinScandal #SocialDemocracy #ALP #liberals #SussanLey #KeirStarmerSupport the showSocially Democratic is an opinion-based political and campaign podcast that facilitates discussion on a range of topical issues.
