Jim Chalmers urged by Treasury to increases tax, urged Australia won't make 1.2 million homes target
Jim Chalmers has brushed off hints of a scandal after advice from Treasury which urged the Treasurer to increase taxes to return the budget to a 'sustainable' position was accidentally made public. First reported by the ABC, the details were mistakenly revealed in an unredacted Freedom of Information request submitted by the broadcaster and shared in an incoming government brief issued by Treasury after Labor won the May 3 election. Although Treasury requested the documents be deleted and unpublished after noting the error, the ABC said the details were 'in the public interest'. While the Treasurer said he was 'pretty relaxed' about the newly revealed details. He said that they had been 'sent in error,' adding that the advice could not have been 'adequately captured' in the mistakenly published subheadings. Responding to specific taxes, Mr Chalmers ruled out changes to GST reform, and an immediate implementation of a road user charge for electric vehicles. However he said the inevitable take up of EVs would 'have implications for the tax base' in the medium and long term. Mr Chalmers added further tax reform would be debated at the upcoming Productivity Roundtable in August, which will focus on ways to 'simplify the tax system'. 'When we speak with tax experts and people that have a view about tax reform, they're interested in efficiency and equity and simplicity, and other design principles like that,' he said. 'The views we have expressed publicly is (that) if there are ways we can simplify and consolidate regulations in our economy, then that would be a good thing for productivity as well, so long as we don't trade away reasonable standards and protections for people.' While the unredacted files didn't identify specific taxes, Mr Chalmers was told he would need to identify 'additional revenue and spending reductions' in order to put the budget in a 'sustainable' position, the ABC reported. The papers said 'tax should be raised as part of broader tax reform,' and suggested 'indirect taxes' and superannuation taxes as potential avenues. This comes as Labor intends to double the taxes on superannuation accounts above $3m, from 15 to 30 per cent, with Mr Chalmers stating the move would only affect 0.5 per cent of people. However the Opposition has opposed the tax as the $3m threshold will not be indexed, with the tax also affecting unrealised gains, penalising people who hold property and other assets in their super portfolio. Housing Minister Clare O'Neil was also advised to 'adjust' Labor's 1.2 million homes target, which it currently must meet by June 30, 2029. Ms O'Neil was urged to look at how migration and skills training could boost the construction workforce, and reassess how to best use state and territory grants as 'leverage' for improved home building rates. However Mr Chalmers said he believed Australia would still meet the target, and backed the 'ambitious' goal. 'It's not the worst thing from time to time for it to be understood in the broader community, that this will be a difficult target to meet, but if we all do our bit, we all play our part, as the Commonwealth has been willing to play, then we can build the homes that people desperately need.,' he said. 'It's one of the defining challenges in our economy, and we're ambitious when it comes to trying to solve it.' Speaking on ABC RN on Monday, Environment Minister Murray Watt said it was 'not unusual' for a minister to receive advice from government departments. He also said Labor remained committed to the Housing Accord targets. 'I, of course, haven't seen them (the Treasury advice documents) myself, but you will have seen that we've taken a lot of steps already to ensure that we can meet that housing goal,' he said. 'We recognise that it's ambitious, but it's certainly our intention to meet it.'

Musk says he is forming the 'America Party' as Trump feud deepens
The tattered relationship between Donald Trump and his main campaign financier Elon Musk has taken another fractious turn, with the space and automotive billionaire announcing the formation of a new political party. A day after asking his followers on his X platform whether a new party should be created, the space and automotive billionaire announced the move on Saturday. "Today, the America Party is formed to give you back your freedom," he posted. "By a factor of 2 to 1, you want a new political party and you shall have it!" The announcement from Mr Musk, Mr Trump's main campaign financier, comes after the president signed his self-styled "big, beautiful" tax cut and spending bill into law on Friday. Mr Musk had fiercely opposed the bill, saying it would bankrupt America. Mr Musk, who became the world's richest man thanks to his Tesla car company and his SpaceX satellite firm, spent hundreds of millions on Mr Trump's election and led the Department of Government Efficiency from the start of the president's second term, aimed at slashing government spending. The two have since fallen out spectacularly over disagreements about the bill. The billionaire said previously that he would start a new political party and spend money to unseat members of congress who supported the bill. This week, Mr Trump threatened to cut off the billions of dollars in subsidies that Mr Musk's companies receive from the federal government. Republicans have expressed concern that Mr Musk's on-again, off-again feud with Mr Trump could hurt their chances to protect their majority in the 2026 midterm congressional elections. Asked on X what was the one thing that made him go from loving Mr Trump to attacking him, Mr Musk said: "Increasing the deficit from an already insane $2T under Biden to $2.5T. This will bankrupt the country." He referenced the growth of Greece from subjugation to pre-eminence in the ancient world in another post. "The way we're going to crack the uni party system is by using a variant of how Epaminondas shattered the myth of Spartan invincibility at Leuctra: Extremely concentrated force at a precise location on the battlefield," he posted. There was no immediate comment from Mr Trump or the White House on Mr Musk's announcement. The feud with Mr Trump, often described as one between the world's richest man and the world's most powerful, has led to several precipitous falls in Tesla's share price. The stock soared after Mr Trump's November re-election and hit a high of more than $US488 ($744) in December, before losing more than half of its value in April and closing last week out at $US315.35. Despite Mr Musk's deep pockets, breaking the Republican-Democratic duopoly will be a tall order, given that it has dominated American political life for more than 160 years, while Mr Trump's approval ratings in polls in his second term have generally held firm above 40 per cent, despite often divisive policies.
