    Government offers small businesses a trust tax workaround (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The federal government has proposed a workaround for small businesses who were worried about paying state stamp duties when they restructure out of discretionary trusts to avoid the proposed minimum tax. They will instead be able to restructure their affairs without actually changing their trust structures, remaining exempt from the tax as long as they do not vary their distributions. The draft legislation is open for consultation for two weeks. Small businesses could avoid being stung by stamp

    Is super a bigger political bomb than Medicare? We're about to find out (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Barnaby Joyce had just said "lie" for the 17th time when the line went dead. A few moments later, dialled back into his Radio National interview, he joked listeners had missed him in "full flight" about Jim Chalmers's claim One Nation and the Coalition were "against universal super". It was, he said, a lie to rival the infamous "Mediscare". It's a telling comparison. Joyce fought the 2016 election when Bill Shorten's Labor ran the brutally effective scare campaign that the Coalition planned to p

    Everybody wants to cut migration but nobody wants to say how (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    When Tony Burke, regarded as one of the smoothest operators in the ministry, hastily withdrew from a press club speech about migration last week — so late that tickets to the sellout event had to be refunded — tongues were set wagging: something must be up. As the ABC then reported, something was up: after much back and forth, the cabinet could not agree on details of the sweeping migration cuts he was set to announce. Ministers insisted discussions were civil and productive, but at the time of

    Liberals pour cold water on frontbencher's migration comments (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Coalition colleagues say Andrew Bragg's suggestion that net migration cuts could be achieved by targeting backpackers and graduated students is not an agreed opposition policy. In a wideranging speech, the Liberal frontbencher also called compulsory superannuation "a loss of liberty" and that large tech companies should be taxed more. One Nation leader Pauline Hanson has also been unclear about whether she has a target for net migration. A Liberal frontbencher's suggestion that net migration und
