Sky News host Peta Credlin says a “good part of the reason” Labor won the federal election was because they were able to persuade voters that Labor leader Anthony Albanese was a “safe change”.
“Now, Labor is having an internal debate about whether to break that promise,” she said.
Ms Credlin said Labor was considering scrapping tax cuts for “people on the top marginal rate” – over $200,000 a year – but for those living in cities, this wage is “not rich”.
“Thanks to bracket creep, the 45 per cent top tax rate, that originally applied to only about two per cent of taxpayers, will soon apply to the top five per cent,” she said.
“Tax at that rate is a serious disincentive for people to make the effort and earn more.”
