Peter Dutton has begrudgingly answered the question he wouldn’t touch with a barge pole yesterday.

Yes, the multi-millionaire property developer Opposition Leader will help his kids buy a house.

After wheeling son Harry out to explain how hard it is to save a house deposit, Daddy Dutts looked like an epic tight arse when he refused to say if he’d help him break into the housing market.

Today, he was backed into a corner when asked – for the umpteenth time – if he’d dip into his millions to help Harry and his siblings.

We’ll help them with a deposit at some stage.

The Prime Minister and I might be able to help our kids, but it’s not about us. It’s about how we can help millions of Australians across generations realise the dream of home ownership like we did, like our parents and grandparents did.

It’s a different proposition today for young Australians.
