Labor is ‘going to look at’ tax cuts for high-income earners: Shorten | Sky News AustraliaThe Opposition Leader is facing questions after telling a coal export terminal worker on Queensland central coast that Labor is ‘going to look at’ tax cuts for Australians earning more than $250,000.\n\nWhile Bill Shorten has said in the past that Labor would look at tax cuts for people earning in excess of $120,000, Labor's budget reply speech prioritised relief for lower-income workers.\n\nTreasurer Josh Frydenberg seized on the remarks, asking ‘did he lie or did he forget that Labor is increasing their tax by increasing the marginal rate to 49 per cent for those workers?’\n\nImage: News Corp Australia \n\n\n\n\n\n KerryChika billshortenmp Labor policy has been very clear. We know they aren't giving away $11,000 to the top end of town, their tax cuts are structured for the working poor, where it is needed, and that will actually drive our economy going forward. auspol ausvotes19 KerryChika billshortenmp KerryChika billshortenmp He's not going to say that if he's not going to put more taxes on people.

Allowing businesses/companies (often fully foreign owned) to bring in unnecessary foreign workers so they can under cut legitimate Australian business doing the right thing is criminal... Don’t bring them in, then they can’t be exploited. How about cracking down on MP
