Senator McKenzie says I should practise, and maybe I should. What I do is just answer the questions, and it's a very good question from Senator Dowling. Build to rent will deliver 80,000 new high-quality homes just for renters. It's us delivering on what we said we would do. Senator Bragg said this was a nightmare, a foreign investor tax cut, but it's the same guy who said:

… everyone needs to support the supply of new housing, it's an urgent issue for young people and it's an intergenerational fairness issue …

Well, this is the same Senator Bragg who later today will move a motion to disallow build to rent. He was going to do it last night, but this is what has happened to the moderates in the New South Wales Liberals. He didn't want to do it because he wanted to go on Sky to shoot his mouth of with more negativity about housing policy.
