The Deakin electorate, encompassing suburbs like Bayswater North, Croydon, and Mitcham, faces significant socioeconomic challenges. Over one-third of renters in Deakin experience rental stress, highlighting the urgent need for affordable housing solutions. Additionally, the rising cost of living has become a paramount concern for residents.

Milton says “Trumpet of Patriots proposes three key policy measures to deliver a lasting solution to fix housing crisis – firstly, the construction of high-speed rail to open affordable land for housing. Secondly, allowing Australians to access superannuation for home deposits, and lastly, capping interest rates at 3%.

“We can solve the housing crisis by establishing fast train rail tracks extending 120 kilometres from our capital cities. A 20-minute commute to the CBD will relieve traffic congestion and unlock affordable land, making homeownership attainable for more Australians,” he said.

He also called for legislative change to allow Australians to access up to 30% of their superannuation to fund a home deposit.

“This will give millions the opportunity to enter the housing market, reducing rental demand and ultimately driving down homelessness and poverty,” he said.
