Taylor fumbles and Labor locks in

Politics Now

It's been a massive week in politics both in and outside of parliament. Labor is set to pass its negative gearing and capital gains tax budget changes with the support of the Greens, granting only minor concessions in exchange. Meanwhile, the terms monoculture and multicultural have echoed through the chambers of parliament this week. Opposition leader Angus Taylor found himself in hot water after side-stepping a series of questions about his support for the ideas. But he's not the only politician having to do some clean up, with One Nation leader Pauline Hanson declaring the Socceroos are actually an example of mono-culturalism, to some raised eyebrows in the Senate. And the idea of a so-called teal party has become a reality, but while Zali Steggall and Allegra Spender have launched Community Strong, how will it actually work? Patricia Karvelas and Fran Kelly are joined by David Speers on The Party Room. Got a burning question? Send a short voice recording to PK and Fran for Question Time at thepartyroom@abc.net.au
