Ironically, the group that's preventing young regional Australians from purchasing their first home is the party that says it's for young people—the Greens party. Of course, the Greens party, we know, are more interested in grandstanding than delivering real change, more interested in social media than social housing and more interested in clicks on social media than bricks on slabs. They've been campaigning against new housing developments in Brisbane, and now they're campaigning against housing legislation down here in Canberra. Again, we see the Greens in league with Peter Dutton and the coalition to block young renters from buying their own home.

We need to remember that every time the Greens vote against Labor's housing measures, they make it harder for young people and they make it harder for renters to be able to get their own home. And every time the Greens party joins with the coalition to attack and undermine Labor, they block housing and they help Peter Dutton. That is what you are about: blocking housing, making life harder for young people and helping the people over there.
