  Speaker 1: Today's biggest news from The Australian. I'm Claire Harvey with
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: The Front's afternoon headlines. Kylie Minogue had a secret battle
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: with cancer for a second time, she's revealing in a
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: new documentary series. The singer announced in two thousand and
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: five she'd been diagnosed with breast cancer, but now she's
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: telling for the first time of how in twenty twenty
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: one she was again diagnosed with the disease and went
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: through treatment privately. Minogue is now fifty seven. Later this
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: week in The Front will be taking a close look
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: at the Kylie documentary and how it stacks up against
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: the Beckham and Robbie Williams blockbusters. New South Wales Labour
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Premier Chris Mins has launched a surprise attack on the
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: federal Labour government's income tax policy. Minn said on Wednesday,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: the Albanese government has failed to tackle bracket creep, which
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: happens when inflation pushes away journa into a higher tax
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: bracket even if they haven't gained any more purchasing power.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: So if inflation's four percent, then your employer gives you
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: a four percent pay rise so you can keep up
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: with the cost of living. You might get pushed into
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: a higher income tax bracket, meaning you lose even more
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: of that extra money in tax. Here's Chris Mins.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: Well, look, I mean, whether it's in this budget or
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: it's in the future, we do need to make sure
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: that we're doing everything we can to hand more money
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: back to working Australians and the top marginal rate of
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: forty seven percent. As I said in Parliament last week,
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: you're working Monday, Tuesday and half of Wednesday for yourself
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: and then Wednesday, Thursday and Friday for the government. But
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: in a general sense, whether it's now or in the future,
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: we do need to make sure we're taking urgent action
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: when it comes to personal income taxes because at the
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: moment a lot of working families are getting stung.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Income tax revenue is collected by the federal government, which
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: distributes some of it to the states to pay for
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: things like hospitals and infrastructure along with GST. States can
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: then add their own levies like stamp duty and payroll tax.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Mins is on song with Federal Opposition leader Angus Taylor,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: who says heal index income tax brackets if elected. That
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: would be a huge structural reform, something economists have talked
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: about for years, which would massively reduce the annual growth
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: in tax revenue the federal government gets to take from
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: way Journers soccer fans used to crack jokes about Arsenal.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Now they're the ones laughing after the North London club
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: won its first English Premier League trophy in more than
