Tax cuts of up to $1,080 per person will likely be delayed for another year with Federal Parliament unlikely to return before June 30.

The plan would give a dual income household an extra $2,160 a yearwants his tax cut plan to become law as soon as possible, so that it applies for tax returns lodged this financial year.The Prime Minister needs to wait for the election writs to be returned before Federal Parliament is recalled, which may not be until late June.

"We obviously have to wait for the writs to be returned and there is a formal process for that," Mr Morrison told Sky News last night."At the moment, it is not looking like until the back end of June. "So that really does make very narrow that opportunity to do it before June 30, and I think that is very unlikely with the advice I have received."The tax cuts were a central feature of the Coalition's election campaign andMr Morrison and senior Coalition figures said repeatedly during the campaign that tax relief would be one of their first priorities if elected.

Coalition frontbencher Simon Birmingham has also conceded the legislative timeline would be dictated by the election process. "Now of course exactly when will depend upon the return of the writs and so we will take advice from the Electoral Commissioner in that regard," Senator Birmingham said."We equally want to get on with delivery of our legislation around social media controls to protect particularly young Australians better in the future, but all Australians from some of the misadventures that can occur on social media.

And so the lies start. What happened to this year as promised Mr. Morrison? You lied when you said it and you can't deliver on that lie now. Shame on you as this is what the perple voted for, and will you forgo your pay raise this year with all other pollies and the humble get 0

Morrison is laughing because he got your vote. Now he's going to deliver exactly what he promised to do NOTHING. Make sure you forget he failed to deliver. He's relying on it.

Nothing ever happens fast in politics...except when they give themselves a pay increase, that only takes about 2 days to get finalized 🤣😐😁🙄

Maybe 2 years!

By the time we get an income tax cut - ABC will be history.

Wow the independent ABC dishing it out on the right how strange

First broken promises, how many more to come?

Labor was telling everybody that the Tax Cuts under the Liberal Party wouldn't take effect until 2024 . More bullshit from Shorten.

People deseve it.

This was talked about weeks ago. Morrison was well aware this would happen but lied about it.

As if he didn't already know this before the election! Ha ha stupid people!

Name and shame the independents that are blocking this. It is time we change the STUPID political system we have.

That is the reason he Scott Morrison Coalition government not go to election early

alexbhturnbull needs to make a 'broken promise' Bingo.

Broken promises will abound but I am relieved to hear that the Libs are still keen on the very fast train from Central to Redfern. infrastructure PromisesMadePromisesKept

So those self-interested Lib voters have been sucked in ... again. Slow learners. auspol

The smiling assassin.

Surprise, surprise... not, - and so it starts.

And people said you couldn’t trust Shorten. Stupidpricks

I cried ‘til I now laugh! Wake up Australia

It won't happen at all

Or until the next election. Reminds of a line from another movie I love,'I said offer them one million Rupee, I didn't say pay them a million Rupee.' Sorry Kids you won't ever see your tax cuts.

So essentially I am being taxed more! This is a concession I no longer get, so by the logic of the election hype - This is a tax hike! auspol tax ScottMorrisonMP JoshFrydenberg LaTrioli

Of course the timing of the election didn't consider this? Unbelievable

So you didn't point out that's one promise already broken?

How good is this government!! 👍🧢👍

Scomo new that before the election. He lied.

Does the SAME apply to the 'PENSION' increases as well Once over the line ALL the BACK FLIPPING starts!!

People got sucked in wait for it

Liberals do not care had a choice chose the wrong one Karma coming

Just to get them elected Labor was better

...but, but we've got a surplus...and so it begins, there's a sucker born every minute LNP voters!!

ScottMorrisonMP how convenient...thepreacher one policy & you now say you can’t even organise that! It won’t eventuate because in 12 months 🇦🇺 will be in grips of recession, the deficit will have blown out of control, ⬆️unemployment... you guys will ensure the ruination of🇦🇺!

How good is breaking the only election promise that you made?

Australia should not complain, we voted for this and let enjoy the next three years. 'We' made our bed and should therefore sleep on it.

Exactly what he needs to deliver a Budget surplus which at the moment likely not to happen.

Dear Coalition voters, auspol

While we can say “we told you so” the ones hit hardest by this news are not the gray nomads currently travelling to warmer climate. They have their middle finger up as they head out of town with no ***** given

All those fools out there that believed ScoMo. Such idiots. He would have already know he could not deliver this year, he was the PM. Such stupidity in believing. Alan Jones where's your ranting now. Lets start counting all the promises that won't be delivered over next 3 years.

Was anyone stupid enough to think they'd get a tax cut under the LNP? ROFL.

Who is [Alexander Downer]? Why will He be in the News soon? For what? Connection to [ HRC ]- [ Obama ]-[Comey]-[Clapper]-[+Others]? What did UK / AUS do? [Complicit in what]? What did [Turnbull] do when he Resigned? US / UK? Did they all know/play a part? Need Lawyers?

3 days 2 broken promises.... Abbott would have been proud

Better than new taxes straight away

Morrison does what he likes now, he’s boss.

They probably worked out the surplus wouldn’t work if they actually did what they said they’d do

Are we getting a pay raise soon? or is costs of living is going to go down? Struggling is real here guys.

Don't expect it this year? I never expected it at all.

typical when the libs are sure they are going to loose they set the debt bomb +usually labour must copy the destructive policy path if by chance they do get back in ...oh dear ...next year knowing by then the great unwashed have forgotten FIX BRAKET CREEP* to realistic levels 1st

Worth the wait......Australians greeted Scott Morrison's win with a massive 10% jump on the ASX, which means investment and jobs..........spending and confidence looks good till the other money arrives for families and business.

Core or non-core?

Thats how we brought the budget back into surplus next year 🤔

Surprise!

This is Labor's fault! They were meant to win. PM Drongo and his little puppy Joshie need the money to find the fake surplus. The house of cards is falling apart so quickly. Suppose there will interest rate cuts and increase in unemployment next. Strong economy, dream on!!

Broken promise 1, wonder what the next one will be?

Want to discuss the upcoming recession for Australia with the fake surplus as a talking point.

Why should we...or did promote a big fat lie.

Gee I'm not surprised. Fake promises again from the LNP. they promised to give cuts to the low income earners and oops can't be done. And he's making all the excuses he can. But he'll manage to give the rich all theirs.. oh that's him right.

Well, well, that took long! Mr Trump, aka Morrison. Looking forward to 3 years of your “ethics”.

Abc showing it's bias again.

So u all want surplus, the best in schools hospitals and pay less for it from tax cuts but where do you think LNP going to get money from. Didn't know they planted a money tree in Canberra. U want something good u pay for it simple

auspol

Lies, lies, lies, lies and more lies.

lnpfail

Im sure most you negative assholes here haven't even bother to read the artical. The left are lazy and only read misleading headlines😅😅😅😅 typical. 3 more yrs of this is going to be awsome to watch. I here N.Z is taking more migrants, i suggest applying for assylum

My recolection was tax cuts in coming 2022 or 2024. Anyway still better than a carbox, tax electric cars, mass unchecked migration from U.N global pack,being taxed more and the whole economy colapsing. Im still happy for now that bill is out of the lodge

He’s nailing it already, eh! Well done Australia 🇦🇺 ffs

bsadams25 🤣😂🤣 FOOLS. Isn’t comforting to know Facebook Power works well. And All those adds and mems.

Well a little wait for a tax cut is way better than having the shit taxed out of EVERYTHING by AustralianLabor immediately. Dodged many bullets. Thank you Australia.

Yikes..They only had this one policy and they buggered it up already.

MinhKular So more lies. What did anyone expect? Wait another year... and then another year. In other words don't hold your breath on a possible maybe of never.

Hahahahahahaha

Here we go again 😶

Is this some kind of record for a broken promise? He had only 2 mandates. Tax cuts and surplus. I suspect they never thought the surplus was achievable and only promised as they thought no chance of a win. Delay in tax cuts might pay for the surplus. Auspol BreakfastNews

And so it starts all over again. Geez people are thick.

Well here we go , promises broken already 👎🏼👎🏼

😂 this is what I’m going to enjoy the most!!! You can run but you can’t hide from all the lies that made this campaign. Watch them all squirm liesandcurruptionwon

barlows_bay

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣suck it up LNP voters.

after the incorrect polls and biased reporting from the MSM you all now believe this rubbish

AngryGranny1 48 hours! That must be some kind of record for broken promises!

And here we go...

ScuMo is the consummate pollute. Not under his control? The timing of elections was delayed so this would be the result. Of course he didn’t expect to win. The question should be asked how did such a shallow man and shonky g’ment be seen as creditable? Says much for propaganda.

Oh dear, 1st step on the slippery road of broken election promises. No surprise there then.

Miracle or Con? 🥳

Wow! Surprise surprise who didn’t see that coming. ATO was saying before the election it could not happen

Or the ATO delays its tax software for 3 weeks

Oh the good old fun loving cap wearing church going beer swilling daggy dad lied and played the electorate And he won

I'm betting that those poor buggers that rely on penalty rates won't have to wait long.

1st broken promise. I am going to make a list and checking it twice.

Well that didn’t take long. One day in and the first lie is proven. auspol

Be prepared for another year of fake news

ScottMorrisonMP is all hot air so don’t hold your breath

Breaking election commitments from day one it seems. He must have known that when he was telling us during the election.

He knows the rules but this way he can claim a surplus with all the extra billions of revenue! The cost of everything is going up and our wages are stagnant. Wake up Australia! You reap what you sow!

what a con? he is going to sit on our tax refund for a year He is slashing ABC He is castrating d ABC They have d coverage that comm channels shunned due to cost

Wait another year for: income tax cut, budget surplus, First Home Loan Deposit Scheme, mental health funding, lift the Medicare rebate freeze, subsidising of new drugs, climate solutions package, apprenticeships/vocational education& training, crackdown on dodgy employers ...

Non core promise?

LNP's new slogan 'Prepare to wait'

Sucked in 😂😂😂 TheLiarFromTheShire comes through for his faithful flock of flatulence

Didn't Labor push for these tax cuts to be passed into law before the election & LNP declined to do so

Once was a given to vote Liberal! Now not!

Do helps prop up a potential surplus?

“But his efforts to do so may be blocked by a bureaucratic timeline beyond his control.” Isn’t he the person who set the date of the election? Wasn’t it pretty much the last date it could be

Idiotic headline... The fact that parliament doesn't sit or pass this until after 30 June doesn't impact on the ability of the law to have retrospective application. All the government is doing is increasing the offset from $530 to $1080. An easy tweak to the law.

Frigging hilarious. All those that voted for your own indulgences just got screwed.

The promise is that they will always be promised as election promises and never fulfilled.

Oh, and by the way, that surplus we've delivered next year....

Well there you go, tick tock he knew the timing either way win or not his bacon is saved 🙄

We are already thousands ahead without Labor win

LNP voters start getting suckered already. Fools.

Pillow talk, baby.

Change the misleading headline. Not a fault of the government

What, he’s used up his miracke quotient for the year?

Morrison set the election date... didn’t think he was going to win? Didn’t understand the process? Either way, can’t blame this one on labor.

Can we increase the tax rate instead? I'd like more infrastructure please.

Mark that down as first broken promise

Screw you Morrison. I want it NOW.

fakenews. ScottMorrisonMP won’t let us down! He is the king!

Of course it was a lie. How thick are ABC News staff. Auspol
