Nine months ago, these homes were still under construction.
Now, 45 new social and affordable homes in Melbourne are ready for people to move into funded through our Housing Australia Future Fund that the Coalition want to abolish.
We’re throwing everything we can at housing.
5% deposits for first home buyers. Fairer housing taxes. And more homes being built right across the country.
Because everyone deserves a place to call home.

Last week, I met James at the Royal Children’s Hospital.
He’s one of many children whose lives have been changed by the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute.
Tonight, we celebrated the people helping change and save young lives every day at MCRI.
For 40 years, their work has given families hope in the hardest moments and given children the chance to live healthy, happy lives.
That’s why I’m proud we’re investing in the next generation of child health research at MCRI.
Matt and Mika can walk to work, put pictures on the walls, and have their dog Pikelet by their side.
All because we helped them buy with a 5% deposit.
Now we’re doing even more to help, changing property investor tax breaks to level the playing field for first home buyers.
This is Pikelet. She is excited to live in her own home with Matt and Mika in Canberra as one of the 250,000 first home owners who have now benefited from our 5% deposit scheme. 🏘️
We’re rolling out more tax cuts for working Australians now.
Plus an extra $250 off working Australians’ tax bills permanently.
And our new $1,000 instant tax deduction, no receipts needed.
Because we know every bit of help matters.
125 years ago, the Federal Labor Party held our first caucus before the opening of our Federal Parliament.
We’ve come a long way since 1901, but we’ve always held true to our values.
No one held back and no one left behind.
And our newest Federal Labor Members who make up the Class of 25 have carried those values forward, working tirelessly for Australians across the country.
