Opinion piece: Support small business this Valentine’s Day
Across the country, Australians are expected to spend $485 million on Valentine's Day this year.
It's the perfect chance to help out our small business sector, whether that's by grabbing flowers from GG's in Canberra or ordering something sweet from the Fudge A'Fare in my hometown of Hobart.
It's been a tough few years for small businesses.

SARAH ABO:
From Canberra this morning is Minister for Housing and Homelessness Julie Collins and in Brisbane mother Vera. Julie, let's start with you if we could. How do we fix this housing crisis?
JULIE COLLINS:
Landmark housing legislation introduced to Parliament
The Albanese Government has today introduced a package of legislation to deliver the single biggest investment in affordable and social housing in more than a decade.
Minister for Housing and Minister for Homelessness Julie Collins said the Government is not wasting a day helping to ensure more Australians have a safe and affordable place to call home.
Second reading speech, Housing Australia Future Fund Bill 2023
Today marks a turning point.
With the Bills I introduce today, this government is turning the page on a wasted decade of national housing policy in Australia.
A decade of dithering;
A decade of delay;
A decade of failing to address Australia’s housing affordability challenges.

Address to the Property Council Housing Thought Leadership event, Parliament House, Canberra
Today we are here to launch the report, A Stark Reality.
The word ‘stark’ is spot on.
The stark reality is that the nation is at a critical turning point.
As Mike Zorbas plainly states in the report’s introduction, “Without decisive action we will compound our failure to supply enough affordable housing and choice for a growing nation over the coming decade.
