Victorian government could be selective in applying land tax on residents based on race

There are reports the Victorian government may choose to not apply land tax on certain residents based on whether they’re Indigenous.

Former Victorian Liberal Party President Michael Kroger says activists should focus on “real problems” such as the situation in Alice Springs.

“There is an Aboriginal industry made up of activists who have largely got government jobs that love going to conferences in Canberra, that love talking about the politics of grievance, our history, etcetera,” he told Sky News host Paul Murray.

“That train slowed very much at the time of the Voice where Australians said ‘stop trying to divide the country on the basis of race’.

“Stop the politics of grievance and history, get into the real world and do something about fixing the problems in the Aboriginal community.”
