Pressure is on the Albanese government to make headway on its long list of stalled legislation before the federal election. Housing will be back in spotlight during the final sitting week of 2024, with the Help to Buy government equity scheme and incentives for build-to-rent to be brought to a final vote in the Senate. The two housing bills have struggled to attract the support of the opposition or the Greens, with Labor knocking back fresh demands from the latter. Central to the Greens' updated position is funding for 25,000 "shovel-ready" homes not given the go-ahead under the first round of the Housing Australia Future Fund. Labor insists the demand is unlawful and would result in the construction of million-dollar homes that are not value for money. Greens housing spokesman Max Chandler-Mather said his party had designed "a compromise offer that is popular, achievable and easy to accept, it requires no new legislation and sits broadly within government policy". With 30 or so bills still before the parliament, the government has been ramping up pressure on the Greens and the coalition to co-operate. "This is a week where we will see the colour of the eyes of Peter Dutton and the Greens party," Employment Minister Murray Watt told reporters on Sunday. A friendless crackdown on misinformation and disinformation has been shelved and gambling reforms have been pushed into next year. Though the government is expecting wins on its aged care reforms and its social media age limit, with the former expected to attract opposition support. Under world-first legislation, Australians younger than 16 will be banned from social media platforms including Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Reddit and X (formerly Twitter). Labor will also be spruiking its Future Made in Australia plan, with its hydrogen and critical minerals production tax incentives to be introduced to parliament on Monday. Economic management will likely get some airtime after monthly inflation figures are released on Wednesday, with headline inflation expected to once again land within the Reserve Bank of Australia's target band. But with the central bank's preferred underlying gauge - stripped of the volatility inflicting the headline number - likely to remain above the two-three per cent band, keenly-anticipated interest rate cuts are likely to stay on ice. The federal election is due to be held by May 17.Karad (Maharashtra), Nov 24 (PTI) NCP (SP) chief Sharad Pawar on Sunday said the Ladki Bahin scheme, women's participation in voting in large numbers, and religious polarisation may have played a role in Mahayuti's victory in Maharashtra assembly polls. He said the election results, declared on Saturday, are not on the expected lines but he would revitalise the party. Responding to a query on his retirement from active politics, Pawar tersely said he and his party colleagues will decide. Speaking to reporters in Karad city in Satara district, Pawar acknowledged that the NCP led by his nephew and Deputy CM Ajit Pawar secured more seats than the NCP (Sharadchandra Pawar), adding "Everyone knows who founded the NCP". "The Ladki Bahin scheme and religious polarisation played a role. Women's participation in large numbers could be the reason for the Mahayuti sweep in Maharashtra. We will study the reasons for the debacle and take necessary steps," he said. Pawar asserted that the NCP (SP) would go to people by re-energising the new leadership. Responding to a query on EVMs, a day after Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut expressed doubts over the massive verdict in Mahayuti's favour, Pawar said he would speak about EVMs only if he has official data. Pawar suffered the worst-ever defeat in his political career in Maharashtra polls with the NCP faction led by him winning only 10 seats in the 288-member House, while the Ajit Pawar-led NCP bagged 41. The Mahayuti scored a massive victory with the BJP winning 132 seats, Shiv Sena led by Shinde 57, and NCP 41. In contrast, the opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi was restricted to 46 seats. Pawar said the poll outcome he had witnessed in his public life was unprecedented. "The MVA coalition put in a lot of hard work but the desired results were not achieved even though people responded positively to MVA during campaigning," the NCP (SP) chief added. He said the MVA was more confident after achieving success in Lok Sabha elections, adding that more work needs to be done. When asked if he was jolted by the poll outcome, Pawar said, "The poll results were declared yesterday. Today I am in Karad. Those who were demoralised would have sat at home". He also said fielding his grandnephew Yugendra Pawar against Ajit Pawar on the home turf of Baramati wasn't a wrong decision as someone had to contest the elections. Ajit Pawar defeated Yugendra by a margin of over 1 lakh votes to win the eighth term in Baramati. "Ajit Pawar and Yugendra Pawar cannot be compared. We were aware of this fact," Sharad Pawar added.

Maverick McNealy celebrates his 72nd-hole birdie and first PGA Tour victory. Getty Images It took 142 starts for the former top-ranked amateur in the world to win on the PGA Tour. Maverick McNealy might tell you it was worth the wait. The 29-year-old pro birdied the 72nd hole to win the RSM Classic at Sea Island Golf Club in St. Simons Island, Ga., on Sunday, a victory that’s been years in the making for someone who several years ago left Stanford for the Tour and immediately became a up-and-coming name to know. He’s been a full-time Tour player for the past five years, but in that span he’s had just two runner-up finishes and one third. That victory was still elusive, but he started this week’s season-ending RSM Classic with an eight-under 62 and suddenly was right where he needed to be. He was tied for the lead at 14 under heading into Sunday’s final round, still led by one at the turn but momentarily lost the lead on the back nine. On 18, as the last one still out on the course, he had 5 1/2 feet to win, and he drained it. A birdie to win on the 72nd hole! Maverick McNealy is a first-time PGA TOUR winner 🏆 pic.twitter.com/z4eh8utuIR “I’ve hit a putt on a putting green to win a golf tournament in my mind thousands and thousands of times,” McNealy told Golf Channel afterwards. “It’s almost like deja vu standing over that last one — and it came off perfect.” McNealy closed with a two-under 70 to finish 16 under, one ahead of a trio that included Nico Echavarria and Luke Clanton (who were both warming up on the range, hoping for a playoff) and playing partner Daniel Berger. The RSM Classic, as the Tour’s finale, was the last chance for pros to get inside the top 125 in the FedEx Cup Fall and keep full membership for next year. For players like McNealy, who was safe instead that line, it was about moving further up to get into 2025’s Signature Events and, of course, winning. McNealy held a one-stroke lead at the turn, but he missed the fairway and the green on 14 and made bogey. That Nico Echavarria, who had birdied 11, 13 and 15, the solo lead. Clanton added a birdie and big-time fist pump on 16 to tie Echavarria for the lead, and they both stepped to the 18th tee tied at 16 under — and then both missed the green in regulation from the fairway. Echavarria failed to get up and down and made his only bogey of the day, and Clanton, who pulled his approach into the bunker, missed his par save on the low side. Clanton, the 21-year-old amateur, has now recorded four top 10s this season in just eight PGA Tour starts. With Clanton and Echavarria both holding the clubhouse lead at 15 under after their bogeys, suddenly a handful of others were in the mix, including McNealy and Berger, who were now tied for the lead with two to play. McNealy and Berger both missed makable birdie putts on 15 and 17. Then, playing the par-4 18th, Berger stuck his approach to 21 feet away, and McNealy stuffed his to 5 feet, 5 inches. After Berger missed, McNealy found the center of the cup — and his long-awaited first PGA Tour victory.
