Join Jo Clay MLA and Matt Grudnoff from the Australia Institute to discuss how fairer taxation can help address cost‑of‑living pressures, growing inequality, and the need for strong public services.

Matt Grudnoff is a senior economist at the Australia Institute. He has published widely on taxation and tax concessions, the Federal Budget, poverty, inequality, and housing affordability.

Matt will unpack how and why Australia should tax the top 1% and how a wealth tax could help address some of today's biggest challenges. Communities are facing increasing pressure from the fuel and cost of living crises, growing inequality, and rising demand for essential services – something has to give.

With more popular support for tax reform than ever, come along and hear how it could work in practice.

Bring your friends, family, and Green-leaners – this event is open to members and non-members alike. Free pizza and chips will be provided, with drinks available at the bar. Join us for a great discussion and meet some amazing progressives in your area! Please register to help us manage numbers.
