We are delighted to announce that Lewis Hall has signed a new long-term contract at St. James' Park 🙌
The 22-year-old has become a key part of the first team squad in recent seasons, making 107 appearances since first arriving at his boyhood club in August 2023.
This is deeply concerning. Treasury published an $88,000 error in its own capital-gains-tax example and it reportedly took outside tax professionals and Financial Review journalists to expose it. Treasury has since admitted the mistake and said the document will be corrected. These are the same people helping design increasingly complex tax laws that Australians, accountants and businesses will be legally required to follow.
When even Treasury cannot correctly apply the rules in its own worked example, perhaps the problem is not the taxpayer, the problem is rushed, needlessly complicated legislation. Australia needs simpler taxation, proper consultation and a government that values competence over ideological tax grabs.
