    Why is everyone saying the liberal party are the biggest ones impacted, how did the national party get left out of the conversation when they seem to be ones PHON is the biggest threat to?

      It was a Liberal held seat for 25 year (or there abouts).

        “They’re living in our homes while Australians can’t even find a rental,” she says. “As Aussie taxpayers, we’re the ones being discriminated against.”

        The irony is baked into the geography. Fantig’s grievance is boiling over in one of the most “traditionally Australian” pockets of the country; more than 80 per cent of Farrer’s residents were born here, far higher than NSW’s 64 per cent average.
