1
This is a massive budget, and I don't just mean in the obvious sense.
2
This is really going to change things for millions of Australians.
3
So let's break it down.
4
Starting with winners, and there's 13 million right out of the gate.
5
People earning a regular wage.
6
We're all set to get a new permanent $250 tax offset from next financial year.
7
This effectively raises the tax-free threshold to just under $20,000.
8
dollars, the biggest move we've seen since 2013.
9
As for investors, well capital gains, now that's the growth in what your investment is worth, that is going to draw higher taxes.
10
It was a straight 50% discount, from July 1 next year it'll go back to being indexed to inflation with a minimum 30% tax rate.
11
That hurts people who are trying to grow some wealth in property, or shares, or crypto, or metals.
12
RIP negative gearing, it's dead from tonight.
13
Well, mostly dead.
14
You can no longer buy an existing property and negatively gear it.
15
New properties only.
16
That's been a huge wealth creation tool for a generation, but it's been cut back to bare bones.
17
The government is hoping this will help 75,000 Aussies own a home, undoing about 10 years of decline in owner-occupier rates.
18
As for family trusts, well, for those that love creative accounting, bad news.
19
distributions through a trust will now cop a 30% tax hit.
20
One group of people that's definitely not in the winners column is older Australians with private health insurance.
21
But Effie knows more about that than I do.
22
Hey Effie.
23
Hey Chris, I don't have good news.
24
For seniors over 65, private health insurance is about to become a lot more expensive.
25
So the government's going to find about $3 billion in saving here by reducing the private health insurance rebate.
26
And this will come into effect on 1 April 2027.
27
Timing is no coincidence.
28
That's the same time private health insurance goes up.
29
It could be the situation where this will push out people from having private health insurance.
30
On the car front, more specifically the electric car front, we have James Ward from Drive here.
31
Wardy, can you tell them what's going on?
32
Yeah, for green motorists, you've got the FBT exemption continuing for more affordable vehicles.
33
There's a $40 million investment into curbside and regional charging, another $40 million to electrify the Australia post fleet.
34
But petrol and diesel drivers, there is no extension to the fuel excise cut, and luxury car tax doesn't change.
35
So, sorry, Chris, no cheap portion.
36
Thanks, Waddy.
37
So, there's a massive amount of changes, but really, all budgets are political.
38
Political editor Charles Croucher, what is this budget?
39
Chris, this is a budget built on trust.
40
that government trusting voters will forgive them in two years' time for breaking their trust at the last election.
41
Lots of lies at the centre of this, but lies that Jim Chalmers thinks will make your life better and therefore will keep your vote in two or three years' time.
42
We'll have to wait and see.
43
Interesting.

Why practice speaking with this video?

This video featuring Chris Kohler provides an excellent opportunity to learn English with YouTube and enhance your English speaking practice. By engaging with current events such as the 2026 Federal Budget, learners can familiarize themselves with relevant vocabulary and phrases used in everyday conversations. Moreover, understanding political and financial discussions can significantly contribute to your overall fluency and confidence when speaking English.

Practicing with this video allows learners to explore the context of government budgets, tax policies, and their implications on society, which are essential topics in today’s world. As you listen, you can improve your comprehension and speaking abilities by mimicking the speaker's intonation, expression, and pacing, making your IELTS speaking practice more effective.

Grammar & Expressions in Context

In Chris Kohler's presentation, several key grammatical structures and expressions stand out:

  • Comparative structures: Phrases like "more affordable vehicles" and "bigger move" highlight comparisons, which are essential in effectively conveying differences in magnitude or value.
  • Future tense usage: Kohler frequently uses the future tense to discuss upcoming changes, such as "will become" and "will cop a tax hit." This not only indicates future expectations but also helps frame your own discussions about forecasts or plans in English.
  • Causal phrases: Expressions like "this is going to change things" or "the government is hoping" establish cause-and-effect relationships, which are useful for building complex sentences and articulating reasons in conversations.

Common Pronunciation Traps

As you practice your English pronunciation with this video, be mindful of certain tricky words and phrases that may pose challenges:

  • Exemption: The word "exemption" may be difficult due to its vowel sounds and consonant clusters. Practice stressing the second syllable: ex-EMP-tion.
  • Capital gains: The phrase "capital gains" is often pronounced quickly in conversation, which can make it hard to distinguish. Focus on clearly enunciating both words, emphasizing the "cap-" in capital and ensuring that "gains" is crisp.
  • Private health insurance: This term includes several individual sounds that can be tricky. Pay attention to the link between "private" and "health," which requires smooth transitioning between the two.

Utilizing the shadowing technique—repeating after Chris Kohler in real-time—will not only improve your articulation but also deepen your understanding of the context in which these expressions are used.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
