Tony Burke: “The people of Australia are selfish, they have empty bedrooms and they’re hoarding bigger houses which they should be selling to people with bigger families. How dare Australians keep immigrants from buying bigger homes”
In a nutshell
NDIS EXPOSED: Massive 52 minute investigation with @PeteZogoulas into Australia's immense disability fraud crisis.
This is Minnesota on a national scale. The NDIS budget - now approaching $50 billion a year - is closing in on Australia's entire military budget, and there is so much fraud in the system that the official government regulator told the Australian Senate there are not enough judges in Australia to try all known cases of fraud. The entire Australian legal system would collapse if they tried.
Up to 99% of alleged NDIS fraud goes unprosecuted. Out of over 7,000 tip-offs alleging fraud in the March quarter of 2025, just 16 cases (0.22%) were prosecuted.
So alleged scammers don't even bother to hide abuse.
To give you just one example: we visited a West Sydney NDIS provider operating out of the exact same address as a previous NDIS business the Australian government shut down for fraud four months ago. They were using the same accountant and THE EXACT SAME PHONE NUMBERS!
When we confronted them on camera, the owners physically assaulted us, smashed $800 worth of @PeteZogoulas's equipment, and staff screamed "RETARD" at us.
These people work in disability care.
Very legitimate and professional disability service business.
Watch the whole thing now. This is just the tip of the iceberg.
Tasmania’s largest farm has been sold to a foreign corporation who will destroy it for “carbon credits”.
The sale was approved by Labor Treasurer Jim Chalmers today, Wednesday 8 July.
The loss of 22,000ha of productive, irrigated farmland currently supporting dairy, beef and previously sheep is a hammer blow to Tasmanian and Australian food security.
Treasurer Jim Chalmers said he believed the sale was “not contrary to the national interest”.
As if it isn’t bad enough it’s being sold to a foreign corporation, it won’t even continue on as a farming operation.
Chalmers and this Labor government have allowed their obsession with net-zero to put Australia’s food security at risk.
Our ability to feed ourselves is clearly in the national interest. Destroying productive farmland for scam “carbon credits” is an act of national self harm.
In the middle of a cost of living crisis, how much will this decision put up the price of cheese and milk? How much more expensive will steak or mince be when Australia stops producing it ourselves?
One Nation’s plan for cheaper groceries and national food security is clear. Ditch net-zero which is destroying productive farmland. Ban foreign ownership of farmland (and housing). Get Australian farmers back to farming and putting affordable groceries on the shelf.
One Nation has always opposed foreign ownership of farm land while Labor’s war against Australia’s world-leading agriculture sector continues. Australia is already a net importer of fresh food, seafood and dairy and this is only going to make matters worse.
Australia must be self-reliant and able to feed ourselves. Jim Chalmers and Anthony Albanese think we can eat solar panels and carbon credits.
This decision is a national disgrace.
