Episode Details

Shadow Treasurer Tim Wilson is staging a dramatic political comeback against Labor’s capital gains tax reforms — but here’s the twist: in his own 2020 book, he actually championed these exact changes. He argued that taxing investment income like labor income would fix intergenerational inequality and break the cycle of inherited privilege. His book, “The New Social Contract,” calls for a fairer, more just economy — policies that now seem to align perfectly with the government’s proposals. So why’s he fighting them now? The contradiction raises serious questions about political consistency and the real motives behind the theatrics.
