- Watch. This. “They are trying to crush your hope” - Max Chandler-Mather on what’s wrong with Labor’s budget and their housing policy.
The Greens are fighting for everyone struggling to keep a roof over their head. But it's going to take all of us. Join our campaign to fix the housing crisis: greens.org.au/campaigns/housi...
This was beautiful and painful to watch because it’s true. So many of us suffer and are told not to complain over scraps.
Damn, I wish every politician in Australia spoke this much truth, this passionately, this vehemently, this articulately, and with this much love in their hearts for the well-being of the greater public. Thank you, Max. You're doing the work of an angel. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Thank you Max for fighting for the most vulnerable in our society.
Keep fighting , because Labour are just about done, that's the official word on the street, The Coalition are done!
That was extremely emotional. I just started crying at the end. Please fight for us and do more advertising. We need to get you guys in to run this country. Next election labor is no longer the party for the workers ,low income people and vulnerable they are centre right liberals in red.
I voted Labor in the lower house, Greens in the senate at the last election, but at the next election I’ll be voting Greens in both houses, on the back of this speech. Well done Max, keep up the fight. You should make a website a documentary where you visit households where people can’t pay their rent. Tell an individuals story then repeat the essence of this speech as a single video, post each video on social media, edit many of these videos together for a feature documentary, and post that online too. Put human faces to this tragedy, lots of them, and disseminate it.
Well done. If only the media would cover these speeches.
This speech by Max of the Greens, was heartfelt, and his passion including the person who didn't have the finance to return home, Greens are the only one's who say if you
Can't afford to give ignore this request.
Need more greens. The left wing of the labor party should just break off and join the greens if politicians like albo and wong are all they get.
And ensure uninterrupted coalition rule.
Labor is an absolute disgrace. Shame on them for Funding the Tasmanian Stadium.
Couldn't have said it better myself. Well done.
Love this man’s passion! ❤ The housing crisis needs to be addressed with a sense of urgency! Summer is coming, and it is predicted to be hotter than last year. Near my home, there are many individuals and families with children living in cars. No one, especially an older person or child should have to sleep in a hot car in summer! If a death was to occur due to negligence, it would reflect badly on all Australian politicians.
you know he takes it up the rear right? he's a typical greenie.... bangs his "boyfriend", puts his pronouns on everything, and secretely looks at little kiddies with delight!
Well done Max
At 41 years old I’ve always tried to avoid politics because I felt there’s nothing to be passionate about it. But this guy man, what a speech he makes me believe there’s actually someone out there fighting for the little guy like me. I’d say something like “he gets my vote “ truth is I’ve always voted greens because I thought they were the “taking care of the environment group”. But to know this guy put his heart on the line makes me proud to know I’ve been making the right choice even if I didn’t know at the time.
Thank you Max!
Thank you for fighting for the vulnerable and poor, we need more politicians who are passionate and care.
At least the Greens office didn't kick that poor Jobseeker out of the office like Amanda Rishworth has done to people on multiple occasions.
Hear! Hear! Well said! The average Australian worker feels betrayed by government and is mired in hopelessness. Max has my vote.
Thank you for being our voice. The workers and the poor have been copping the whole "austerity for the country" rhetoric for over a decade but we're the only one's going without. The pandemic brought this home like never before. My friends and I, in particular are angry (bordering on true rage). It's a dangerous thing to take hope from people and when decent, hardworking people can no longer see a potential path to a better future, they start to feel like they've nothing to lose.
I am also a 77yr old on a Pension, struggling as it is and my RE informed me that my Landlord will be putting up my rent by $120 a week at Lease Renewal time in 3 mths, I have paid 4yrs worth of their mortgage (which wasn't huge to start with) and have been a good tenant and now they want to screw me over for every cent. I don't think $450 a week for a "very basic" 2 Bed wooden cottage is very acceptable.
I agree with Max's statement about the banks making huge profits at our expense, and big businesses and corporations are exactly the same, its about time that there was a Cap on Profiteering
Not only should there be a Rent Freeze (which is already too late for some)
but the "rent increases once per year" policy will do nothing as the Landlords will then just double the increase. Have to close all the loopholes.
Keep pushing!.
You're giving us hope Max, and the whole Greens party. Please never change, I love your passion, you are the future of this country. Thank you for fighting for us.
You inspire us, you give us hope.
Warmest,
A struggling 30 year old.
Go off king 🔥
Great stuff mate.
The fantastic Max Chandler-Mather. I love you and your passion and your eloquence.
Must admit, I voted labor last election with Greens preferences. I used to vote Green before that, and I'll be voting for them again next time round.
I admire this guy for speaking out like this, he appears to normal to be in the greens!
I don't know much about this man, but his speech brings me hope for my future. I felt safe listening to him
Love his passionate speech ! No one word is wrong from him. Don’t understand why is he called “immature” and “grow up” by the greedy, rich politicians??
I saw this speech shared by a friend in Instagram. I asked her to send me the actual video and thats how I got here. Love all the things he is saying in this speech! ❤️
35k views at the time of this comment. What a landmark moment viewed by so little. Thank you so much for these words and actions. I've waited my whole life to hear words like this on the floor of parliament, it really is a sick joke. Be proud Greens, you are truly making history and shaping the future of our country.
This is powerful. Good job Max!
So good to hear these points being raised! It restores my faith that our future is in safe hands, with these younger people of integrity at the helm. Endure any "radical Greenie" slurs Max - you have hit a raw nerve and they are not happy - because you are dead right! 🥰😀🥰
this is an excellent speech. it applies to the US too.
corporate profits over treating ppl humanely is shameful and should not be allowed. i don’t kno why ppl aren’t rioting in the streets. oh because we’re locked into our jobs so we can barely make ends meet
First time I have listened to the greens since before Bob Brown...my daughter showed me some weeks ago. ♡
Back in my parents and grandparents days, Housing Commission were handing out houses like hot cakes. You could literally pick and choose what house you needed and where you wanted to live.
You could call it your forever home.
The good old days, when Labor were still Labor, not just Liberal-Lite like now.
A much needed example for Dutch politics as well.
A, wellinformed, heart over a calculating mind
Max you are the future. Stay strong.
One question....would the Greens support an immediate and substantial cut in Australia's annual immigration intake?
Go greens!
Very emotional and heartfelt message, thank you for caring
I'm voting for this man as the next prime minister! He looks like he genuinely cares!
You are awesome Max! Thank you for bringing to light the inequalities for our Australian people.
As a tax payer, business owner & employer, I do not find it at all acceptable that the lack of a resilient safety net is the default and current standard.
We are better than this, thanks for speaking up with such passion.
I would normally not be swayed to vote green but on this issue, I believe you are on the money.
Keep doing more of this stuff please
so basically you want the taxpayer to come to your aid so you don't have to pay a living wage. nice one, very progressive
@@snarkybuttcrack what might be the point of you making an assumption like that with no data to suggest that your assessment of what I pay my employees is accurate?
very proud of you well said
Go off mate
Well said my friend 😮
We really need to force their hand, because if they call for elections this will take a lot longer to solve. All sectors and unions should be involved.
awesome effort,
Do you think its a good idea to have the same policy as the Canadian.
I do not think both labor and Green has 0% idea to increase housing affordability.
This policy is good for the poor that are not planning to own a home
Exactly. How dare they. I just hope Max doesn't get his passion beaten out of him.
Wow.. spot on Max.
Labor's Housing Fund is an absolute disgrace. Labor is the enemy of all renters.
I hate the greens but this is straight facts, hats off to you my friend
WOW, what a speech. Please keep going Max.
Amazing speech Max, thanks so much.
There is no excuse for this. Australia should not only be an energy hub with cheap efficient energy we should be a good bowl for all Asia.
We are a rich country. And we have people who can't afford to switch on the lights. We have small business going to the wall because they can't afford energy costs. And we are the most energy rich nation in the world!
We are a rich nation led by incompetent politicians and the people are suffering. While banks, insurance companies and other big business make record profits.
That's the cause of inflation. Not the meagre wage increase people are fighting for. Yet the workers are been punished.
Thanks. Australia (US state) is becoming harder to afford rent so much so that people are living in their cars.
With CHILDREN this is the worst part and NOT acceptable under any circumstances.
Right on
HERE HERE I want you to be the Prime Minister!!! You are right on. I'll be watching you and voting for you. 🙂
Politicians will say anything to get in power.
Disgraceful disgusting banks and developers and governments
He is an honest passionate man.
What about not spending billions on defense and on football stadiums so as we can out a roof over people's heads
Absolute Hero
Good mate
Nice
Shame on community and justice department of new south Wales tenant died one month inside his unit until neighbours complained about bad smells ... PRIVATISATION OF COMMUNITY AND JUSTICE IN NEW SOUTH WALES IS NEASSARRY - SAVE OLD PEOPLE LIVES -
on ya mate some one has to say somthing bunch of criminals
Im voting Greens next election
This is how revolutions start
Brilliant! ...and Govt can guarantee 32 million dollars every day for next 32 years for nuclear submarines whilst disabled people like myself sleep on the side of the street! Shame Labor shame!
By the way- I rang his office literally crying and begging for help after he had been elected and
I was flat out told there was nothing they could do.
epic w
To the green party, if you choose not to support labour's bill, then I will put you last on all my voting for the rest of my life, I support what the government is trying to do, you trying this sort of thing is going to backfire so big, that you will have less seats in the Senate the one nation does.
💪 Legendary Speech! Spitting Facts
Max touched me
Free tents for everyone yay
how about the 365 million on the voice referendum Max?
You're right. There should be no referendum. The Voice should just happen.
@@Blackheathenly exactly. I dont even understand why we need referendum to give certain groups their OWN rights.
the voice should not happen, we don't need any more devision, have you seen what is happening in WA? I will be voting a big fat NO
goodon ya, mate
Amazing. Please run for Prime Minister.
Interesting to see how many parliamentarians were conspicuous by their absence. Truth hurts, you rich, out-of-touch dinosaurs?
Isn’t Max the dude who wanted the federal government to freeze rent even though the Federal can’t even constitutionally do that?
Has this party not done any reading on the most basic laws and constitutions of this country?!?
Please take note of all our hardworking, overworked and terribly underpaid politicians, doing what they do best.... simply not being there ! Missing in action as usual !
Lord spare me equally from the poor man's pudding and the rich man's crumbs.
Time to rise up Australia. A social upheaval is coming and coming hard.
This man needs to be our next prime minister
It disgusts me that NOONE bothered to show up to work & sit in the chairs that they as paid to sit in!
There is away to fix australia lands. Bring those beavers from U.K and U.S to Australia. Give up Farmlands and Rivers for Beavers to build their Wetlands all around Australia. But that is not going to make profit now. But will make profit in 100 years. Again. Nothing can change the way those businesses are running. Nothing can change the way those farms are running. Nothing can change the way those human are consuming their foods and products from those farms. Nothing can stop those farmers from farming sheep on grass lands instead of inside a forest. Nothing can stop those cows farmers to farm their cows in forest instead of grasslands. Nothing can stop those big farmers from turning big patches of lands into a single weats farm. Nothing can stop those farmers from turning a giant rainforest into a corn farm. Just as sad as it sound. As bad as it looks. As depressed as it going to be for the future of "Greening" australia. They are turning australia into a farm. Not a rain-forest. To turn australia into a rain-forest? Those Leaders and farmers need to change a lot of their old ways of farming and doing businesses.😂 bring Beaver to australia? Some will even say it is going to ruin the Old australia. So all other desert on this planet.
Well spoken mate!
The LNP has boycotted this section. Disgusting!!!
Cane 'em baby!
💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
The Greens refusal to support 30,000 public and low cost houses is disgusting. Sure fight for more later, but let’s get this first lot of funding through the parliament so house can be built.
Agree, this is the second time ( the first being not to support the carbon tax) the Green has failed to support a solution that will at least have some benefit. By the Greens blocking this initiative they will delay the building of housing. As for the "rent freeze" rather than a rent cap shows a lack of understanding of the economics of providing rental accommodation.
30k if the HAFF turns a profit and 2% fees is a absolute joke
Next PM minister please and now, we need the change asap…
Time to take over parliament!!!
Labor would burn the whole country for the property investors
Hey Max, grow up.
proceeds to block a housing fund . . . sounding like the carbon emissions trading scheme again, greens vote down help for Australians because it's not their policy and it's just not enough leaving Australians with nothing. because green care more about making a political point than actually helping people
Finally, someone with a semblance of sense
Why in a country that offers as much opportunity as Australia, do we even need public housing.
Grow up???? significant social housing hasn't been done since 1946 ... which led to the BOOM of industry in Australia.
And yet he and his party are voting against it
@@mrspeaker6720 Read the Labor policy it has no direct way of building houses ... it's a private cash splash.
@@dodgygoose3054 so you're saying the greens would rather people were homeless than in privately owned homes. I would never have accused the greens of such heartlessness, so I'm surprised you say it outright
@@mrspeaker6720 as I said read the policy as your reasoning has no factual basis but is that your liberal & national rationale, total bs
@@dodgygoose3054 calling it bs, but no actual substance to back it up. I honestly never thought the greens would be pro-homelessness
The news really didn't run this one as far as I can tell. Found it on TikTok.
Are you single?
Grow up
it takes a lot of money to clear bushland for housing and supporting infrastructure, and a lot of koalas will be made homeless.....the number of mps listening in the house shows how relavant greens are.........😅
Well actually, one of the solutions for housing is swapping low density housing for well planned medium density. It wouldn’t require clearing bush land.
Jeez. This blokes arm is guna fall off
