    The overton window always shifts. Seems very short sighted of them to not address this years ago. Anecdotally as someone in their late 30s most of my friends only got on the property ladder relatively recently so haven’t previously had much skin in the game economically speaking. We all have plenty more experience than our parents of being in the rental rat race and insecure gig employment too which I think pulls us to the left on plenty of policies out of sympathy even when our personal economic situation improves.

    I don’t think Scomo being the least popular pm in living memory has helped the liberals much either.
