Housing affordability dominates the headlines as the Albanese government repackages its 5% deposit scheme for first home buyers, but with global evidence showing such policies push up prices without fixing supply, is this just more political spin? We examine why restrictive zoning, slow planning, and the lack of social housing remain the real barriers to affordable homes, and the government needs to understand that housing is a human right, not just an investment. Australia has expelled Iran’s ambassador, but it raises questions about the credibility of ASIO, double standards on Israel’s war crimes, and whether this move is linked to Australia’s upcoming recognition of Palestine. And the Coalition’s climate wars are tearing the party apart yet again, with Nationals MPs, Gina Rinehart, and conservative media undermining net zero while corporate Australia and voters demand action – leaving Sussan Ley’s leadership on the brink and Labor with a political gift that just keeps on giving.  #AusPol #HousingCrisis #ClimateChaos #MiddleEastPolitics<b>Support New Politics:   </b><ul><li>Patreon: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/newpolitics" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.patreon.com/newpolitics</a></li><li>Substack: <a href="https://newpolitics.substack.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://newpolitics.substack.com</a>  </li></ul><b>Song listing:   </b><ol><li>‘Even Better Than The Real Thing’, A 440 VS U2 instrumental remix.</li><li>‘Man of Constant Sorrow’, Skeewiff.</li><li>‘The Last Goodbye’, Odesza.</li><li>‘Get Back’, The Beatles (remix).</li></ol>
