We asked #TimWilsonMP specific questions about his National Press Club claims regarding Tweeny Skin and its young 'entrepreneur'.
We gave him the chance to clarify. To explain what he knew about the business and his "50% partner" claim surrounding #CGT.
He hasn’t replied.
That’s a shame. Because now, we’ll have to clear up the record ourselves. We can’t answer for Tim, but we can share the facts. And the facts suggest his claims may not be as accurate as he’d like us to believe.
Keep your eyes peeled.

Re: National Press Club Address 20/5/26
Dear Mr Wilson,
On 20 May 2026, during your address to the National Press Club, you referred to a young entrepreneur named Sienna Jovcevski and her business, Tweeny Skin.
According to the official transcript and video of your speech, you stated:
“At the age of 12, Sienna set up Tweeny Skin in her bedroom.”
“Built after school, packed orders on weekends … reinvested basically every dollar back into the business.”
“Yet while Sienna finishes her HSC, she has learned she has a shareholder who wants to take half the reward of her effort.”
You later referred to this “half” as a potential 47% tax outcome when questioned by ABC journalist David Speers.
Mr Speers specifically asked you:
“The government says existing exemptions for small business would remain. So how exactly would Sienna lose half her profit?”
You responded:
“Well it depends on when Sienna chooses to opt out of her business and sell it and for what price…”
You later added:
“It could, depending on the exit strategy and price, ultimately face up to 47%.”
Mr Speers then asked:
“But is it possible she could pay no capital gains tax as well?”
To which you replied:
“We’re dealing with hypotheticals… It depends on when she decides to exit, it depends on what she sells for, it depends on what stage of life she’s at based on the current application of the law.”
Given the seriousness and specificity of the claims made in a nationally broadcast address, and the potential for those claims to alarm small business owners and young entrepreneurs, it is reasonable for Australians to seek clarification as to the factual basis of the example you presented.
Accordingly, could you please clarify the following:
1/. Prior to referencing Sienna Jovcevski and Tweeny Skin in your speech, did you make any enquiries regarding the legal ownership structure of the business?
2/. Did you seek to determine whether the business operates as:
→ a sole trader,
→ a company,
→ a discretionary trust,
→ or another legal structure?
3/. Did you seek to determine whether the business is legally owned, operated, or controlled by Sienna Jovcevski personally, or by other individuals, entities, or family structures associated with the business?
4/. Did you make any enquiries as to whether existing small business CGT concessions may apply to that business in the event of a future sale?
5/. Did you obtain or review any information regarding the approximate turnover, profitability, or scale of the business before presenting it as a national example of the impact of proposed CGT changes?
6/. Did you receive any professional taxation or legal advice supporting the proposition that the business would realistically face an effective 47% tax outcome under the circumstances you described?
7/. Given your acknowledgment that the example was hypothetical and dependent upon numerous unknown future variables, do you accept that your original framing may have conveyed a misleading level of certainty to viewers?
8/. Have you since sought clarification regarding whether your example accurately reflected the operation of Australia’s current small business #CGT concession framework?
These are reasonable questions arising from statements made by a Federal Member of Parliament during a nationally televised address on taxation policy.
Australians are entitled to expect that examples used in public policy debates, particularly those involving taxation and small business, are properly verified, accurately framed, and presented with appropriate factual context.
We look forward to your clarification.
Sincerely,
The Noisy Trunk
On behalf of many Australians
Hey #TimWilsonMP, I reckon if “Andrew” has made $35M in 5 years, he can afford to pay a bit of tax. Perhaps not the example you’re looking for? #qt
#abc730 @FergusonNews Why would you invite #TimWilsonMP onto #abcnews to discuss the RBA's 3rd rate increase in a year when you know all he's going to know is recite #LNP talking points blaming #AustralianLabor. Why did you let him get away with blaming @JEChalmers for oil shock?
@JosephCJohns @auspolfiles @nickschadegg Check shameful, squalid voting record of #TimWilsonMP.
#LNPCorruptionParty have unimaginably decided he is the man to challenge Treasurer @JEChalmers. #Auspol #LNPNeverEverAgain #GoldsteinRemorse #LNPcrooks

@anneOkeefe7 @WakeWtfu @MarkDreyfusKCMP please lodge a complaint with Australian Electoral Commission to have #TimWilsonMP disqualified.
Hey @TwitterComms a guy called #TimWilsonMP is not an MP, is impersonating an MP which is illegal in Australia.
@HumbleBarman @LiberalVictoria @GladysLiuMP @JoshFrydenberg @TimWilsonMP Who is this #TimWilsonMP ? Isn't he just Tim Wilson now?
@CharlieBubba71 @CSI_lcrhms @slpng_giants_oz @andrewmercado @rhysam @raywilton4 @CaraMia200 @_sara_jade_ @OzAlphaWolf @TheKennyDevine @Peter_Fitz For years he didn’t engage or listen to us in Goldstein
His staff responded on his behalf
He was too busy for us & never in his wildest imagination he considered we’d vote for an Independent
His feelings were hurt at being abandoned
Now he knows how we felt for years
@maximum_chips Tim Wilson former MP squandered the privilege gifted to him by the IPA and former Liberal AG George Brandis. I hope he has learned something about whose “gifts” they were, and gets his own. Humbling isn’t lethal, just painful. And an opportunity.#TimWilsonMP
Every time Wilson opens his mouth he dribbles crap. Wanker #TimWilsonMP
Lol.

#timwilsonmp #auspol A home for a family vs superannuation. Do you get it Tim - a roof over a family vs superannuation. 60odd nights in Canberra...thank goodness that TA came in champ, cos it's not how 99% of families can live under your mob. Does political cruelty have a name?
Whilst Morrison’s minders carefully manage all photo opportunities, I wonder if this one was done on purpose as even his Deputy PM calls him a liar and dodgy so its no wonder his minders had a little fun with #scottytheliar #timwilsonmp #JoshFrydenberg #auspol #auspoll2022 #abc
@mahootna2 @LizzBettZee I totally agree. The majority of the media are propaganda mouthpieces for the LNP. As far as I'm concerned we're now living under an elected dictatorship. Most of the LNP belong in jail. #timwilsonmp #ABCYourBiasIsShowing @ScottMorrisonMP @JoshFrydenberg

@dandyosully @pauloliver9999 Why do I think #TimWilsonMP is thinking, "I'd be killing it in the prayer room with this outfit" ?
@DocB__ @cpyne @TimWilsonMP @10NewsFirst @9NewsAUS @7NewsAustralia @abcnews There should have been breaking news that the rotten fish head PM Morrison has appointed #TimWilsonMP as the arse minister.
Dear Mr. Frydenberg,
If, as you claim, so much damage was done to Victorians during lockdowns, where exactly were the likes of yourself and Tim Wilson in supporting your constituents and VIC during this time - crickets. #JoshFrydenberg #TimWilsonMP
