it seems there's an easy solution - put a cap on rental prices then propose a reworded Bill in October. We can have both. It would be a shame to oust this government at this early stage.

"Murdoch Free World. https://www.murdochfreeworld.com.au/

As the next stage in taking on Murdoch, MFW will build a website and app which will enable Aussies to more easily discover which companies fund Murdoch and allow them to both make more informed purchasing decisions on a huge range of products and services. Murdoch’s not in the news business, he’s in the advertising business so help us hit him where it hurts.

Your donations will help to build and host these platforms, and pay salaries we need to operate going forward. Even if you can only afford $5, it’s all crucial as every dollar counts."
