My question is to the Prime Minister. Under Labor's housing and rental crisis, average rents have gone up nearly $100 a week and mortgages $200, while Labor spends billions of dollars a year pushing house prices out of reach of first-home buyers with tax handouts that overwhelmingly benefit the wealthy. You said Labor has changed on tax cuts because of economic pressures. Will you now also act on unfair negative gearing and capital gains tax handouts to help fix Labor's housing crisis, or do people have to win a lottery to get a home under Labor's plan?
