Angus Taylor rebukes Andrew Hastie for call for Liberals to be ‘open-minded’ on tax rises and property concessions

Angus Taylor has publicly rebuked Andrew Hastie over Hastie's call for the Liberal Party to consider tax increases on gas companies and property tax concessions. The rebuke highlights a policy disagreement within the opposition coalition, with Hastie suggesting openness to fiscal measures the party leadership opposes. The split has prompted some Liberal MPs to raise questions about the party's current leadership direction. Taylor's response signals resistance to a potential shift in the Liberals' tax policy stance as the party charts its opposition strategy.
