Vic How would you rate Daniel Andrews' performance as Victorian Premier? - Part 6

[Christopher Buttersnip]

it is likely that those restrictions will also go in the next 1-2 months as well imo

All we have is the present as it's a moveable feast so to speak. As the matters in WA have reminded us and eminent specialists continue to tell us.

"China Dan" attempting to build Cain-like social legacy; outside merely being thankfully superb at diminishing human rights during a global pandemic.

Leaders set example, he's shown a penchant for dehumanising some of those with views contrary to his own; amongst other things, referring to such as "that person". Its no wonder we have divisive militant LWNJ doing similarly likewise in Victoria.

It’s a response to dehumanising language used by right wing side as well. Part of hyper partisan politics

Typical DA, shift the blame and take no ownership himself.

Rinse and repeat.

As a property professional myself, I'd love for reporters to ask some questions about who comprises the "property industry that reneged on a deal" and which individual gave the go ahead!

It's be universally slammed by all professional bodies and the many individuals in that space that I know.

As a property professional, can you give some insight into:

• Are margins so thin that it isn't possible for a developer to absorb $1 of extra cost, or is there are level of greed/power in being able to immediately pass on 100% of the cost of something like this;
• Is the reference to extra cost $20k per house complete BS scaremongering given this would suggest that the average cost of a place in a 3+ build is above the median price of a dwelling in Melbourne, which is patently absurd given the nature of most places being built on 3+ developments.

This is another example, like any changes that might hit the mining industry, of the power and PR expertise of the property industry.

He’s dropped the words “that person” again, yep for another female, this time in real estate.

What a deadset wan*er.

He really is a moody character.

That wouldn't be the only applicable levy on a development project. Planning Permits for multi-unit developments are often subject to payment of lawful contributions, by the development, to Local/State Government.

It is getting to the point that there are so many "THAT PERSONS" we won't know to who Dan is referring. But one thing we do know is that once you are referred to as as "that person" by Dan he has completely written you off.

 

[Sttew]

He really is a moody character.

Petulant I'd say. If he doesn't get his way, if someone contradicts or crosses his path, he childishly refers to them as "that person" And yet so many people fawn over him

No, quite the opposite, because unlike the mammoth mining industry, the reported application of this levy to projects involving 3 units and over covers small projects which arguably account for significant portion of small concerns as well as new entrants.

The $20K is a bit over the top from the modelling our firm did. Ours was more likely to cost the homebuyer an additional $8k-ish. Developer margins are generally pretty thin so it would be in their best interest to pass on the cost.

In the end its just another tax increase, still paid for by the voting public, that is hidden from the end user.

Where are the anti viral pills? These absolutely need to be here for winter.

Adding to Victoria's inglorious title as THE highest taxed state in Australia

That's more of a federal question isn't it?

 

[Gralin]

They should just abolish stamp duty, bring in a universal land tax and fund social housing properly

Na more so asking in here to see if anyone has read or heard anything. Not a dig at states.
