The political calculations behind Albanese’s economic roundtable
Today, press gallery journalist Karen Middleton looks at Anthony Albanese’s long game – and the way he wants to change the economy to change the country.
Labor is laying the groundwork for a major overhaul of Australia’s tax system.
In just over a week, a hand-picked group of people from business, unions and government will gather in Canberra for an economic roundtable.
Already, a range of ideas are being touted for debate: From lowering company tax rates, to rethinking negative gearing, and a carbon tax.
The Prime Minister is watching carefully to see which ideas gain traction – and which are political poison – before claiming them as part of his own agenda.
