Those of us living in strata properties built post 1998 are currently paying the very substantial costs of the last round of lets get rid of bureaucracy by allowing developers to self certify www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...

The MSM are complicit in this. The amplification of LNP talking points about them being better economic managers & the push for small govt & lower taxes leads to election of RW govts that don't believe in public services. Some things should never be outsourced - health, aged care, disability etc

Coalition continuing to focus on the primary vote doesn't recognise that Australians generally understand how preferential voting works and use that to send a clear message. Both majors choose to ignore that at their peril. #auspol #qanda

Where does the freaking nuclear waste go Hollie? ☢️🤯 Seriously....I'm a bit more worried about nuclear waste than solar panel recycling #auspol #qanda

Using Jenny Ware as an example of a lost opportunity for the Libs of a strong female politician....please 😳 She was good at repeating Dutton's nuclear taking points & sending leading surveys to basically confirm/justify party position. Need thinkers and leaders...not crumb maidens. #qanda #auspol

Suggesting that Angus has the best credentials to get the Coalition focussed on economy 🙄 Wasn't he the shadow treasurer that literally just went to the election with no economic policy - no tax policy, no policies on cost of living other than petrol excise. #qanda #auspol

Susan McDonald on 730 bleating on about Labor only getting 1/3 of the primary vote. Major parties guilty of not getting that a large proportion of voters understand how preferential voting works and uses it to convey a message to the majors. 3rd party/ind voting is the reform that politics needs

Hilarious....panel declares Dutton winner of debate. MSM think their consumers are so dumb they'll believe whatever crap they report/print. How embarrassing for them and their professional reputation #leadersdebate #auspol

Best thing about going into blackout mode will not having to sit through those painful trumpet of idiots ads #auspol #federalelection

Who won 🤣🤣 #leadersdebate #auspol

I thought Deb Knight had some good questions tonight but what was that? PM - what are you doing for old people? Albo starts to answer about aged care reforms and apparently the answer doesn't address well enough for Deb that we should be pitching voters against each other #leadersdebate #auspol

I think people are smart enough to understand that Trump is a narcissistic sociopath and that Dutton doesn't have any particular pathway or relationship that would see Aust being treated better under LNP #leadersdebate #auspol

Fark...I said this last time. My pensioner father would be lucky to fill up his car once a month....most likely less often. This is NOT a major saving for pensioners (except those wealthy enough to be grey nomading around Australia) #leadersdebate #auspol

🙄 Are we going to have Allie Langdon's critique of all the answers tonight...or just Albos? #leadersdebate #auspol

Oh the irony 😳 Full page advert in the DT from #newscorpse & Ch7 talking about what is Australian. That we honour our First Nations, stand up to hate and bullies & don't tolerate racism. Coming from the most hateful & divisive MSM orgs who actively work to sow division....that's a bit rich #auspol

Now this is making me mad....Dutton was the one that divided the country when it came to The Voice....those increased deaths are on him 😡 #leadersdebate25

Not sure that Dutton claiming he can kiss Trump's arse better than anyone else is the vote winner he thinks it is....tbh...Albo not doing much better in his reply #leadersdebate25

Ha ha....Dutton now saying he doesn't know Trump...he doesn't even go to my school 😭🙄 #Leadersdebate25

Faaaaaark....now he going for the whole flood, fires, cyclones have always happened....what an arse. Some people care more about their future and the future for their kids than a $275 energy rebate #duttonlies #leaderdebate25

Wow...he's really going for energy as the thing he wants to be known for #dutton #leadersdebate25

Fuel excise cut will help pensioners? 🤷 My Dad's a pensioner and I reckon he would maybe go through a tank a month ....maybe #leadersdebate25

Bit of an own goal. Says about his daughter "When she does the sum, she realises that after five, probably even ten years of really hard saving, she’s not going to be close to a deposit”. Labor's policy would help her get there faster 😂 www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...

Unfortunately, neither of the leaders of our 2 main parties inspires hope in giving us a leadership that provides a vision for how Aust responds to, or fits in, to this new emerging world. So depressing 😥 www.abc.net.au/news/2025-03...

Dear #millionairepeterdutton pontificating on what Albo should have done to kowtow to the mad king. You can't reason with chaos. I really hope that the electorate shows you that aligning to the oligarchy isn't the winning strategy you think it is 🤬 #auspol

She says Ally like it means something to Trump. He is treating Aust the same way as Canada....a 25% tariff on Aust steel...despite Aukus and a trade surplus. He is like a child that says you can't play with me and as soon as the other kid goes to play with something else he snatches that away too

I was just reading about #millionairepeterdutton aligning his taxpayer funded travel with Lib party fundraising (in the Guardian) & thought I would pop onto Google to see if other MSM were covering it. Then thought I would look at how the DT was handling the last two weeks - no bias there 😜 #auspol

Took almost the whole show before Hollie Hughes got to implore "won't someone think about the CBD coffee shop owner" #qanda #auspol

They really are saying the quiet part out loud now. According to census split of employees to business owners is 85:15 Why would any worker vote for a party that is so blatantly opposed to them having any rights www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...

So let's see. So far we have nuclear energy, free lunches for business, cutting public service jobs (which means cutting services or giving big $ to consultants to run them) and now...ta da.... Public servants back to work so that landlords and coffee shop owners can make their profits #auspol

Why is this news? Relevant if the story was Minister tries to interfere with natural justice by having charges against brother dismissed....but clearly not what is happening here. We can't be responsible for the behaviour of all the people in our family/life. www.smh.com.au/national/nsw...

Jaysus...woman who is calling for people to not harass her and her sons advocating for govt to harass and discriminate others because they weren't born here #qanda

Fuck him and his "persistent depressive disorder". So over people who get caught being absolutely vile to anyone that has a lifestyle they don't agree with claiming mental health as a mitigating factor. Plenty of people with depression don't send death threats to vulnerable people.

Glad everyone is safe - but watch the vid to see cultural differences at play Japan '24: 379 evacuate JA flight that caught fire at Haneda. People following FA's commands to leave baggage, be calm cited as saving lives Nth America '25: FA telling people to stop filming and leave bags largely ignored

Is this the most perfect image of what it looks like when your own colleagues don't want to work with you any more 🤣 #auspol #joyce #millionairepeterdutton www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...

This 60 Minutes fluff piece on #temutrump feels exactly like their former puff piece on Scomo, highlighting his ukelele skills. Now we have newspaper delivery, butcher's assistant #millionairepeterdutton. Spare me 🙄. If he wins does that mean we have to put up with this for the next 4 years

I find it laughable, and oh too common, when bosses think that it is the employee that needs to "save face" by coming up with BS reasons why the boss has sacked them - particulalry where the sacking is not because of poor performance but is political, change in culture, don't like someone etc 1/

I know there are probably other reasons for striking but does anyone else gets WTAF from this? Like, we are advocating for you to get some compo for the 4 days of strike action last month that inconvenienced you by putting a further 14 days of strike action in place www.abc.net.au/news/2025-02...

Voter thinks #MillionairePeterDutton "sounds like he's really stopping & thinking about things, & it comes across a lot more eloquent". WTAF. Voters like this will be the reason we start to see articles post election "waaaahh I didn't think he would do this" like we are seeing from the US #auspol

Compare the pair: Trump "What do you want me to do, go swimming?” Scomo: I don’t hold a hose, mate”. No common decency or empathy and certainly no statesmanship. Empathy is not weakness. I hope that anyone thinking of voting LNP are watching the shit show that is happening in the USA #auspol

Surprising 🤔 When Rinehart LITERALLY called for an equivalent of Mr Trump’s newly promised government division to be named the Department of Government Efficiency.... And so the puppets complied and LITERALLY called it the same thing.. but Price is surprised by the comparison 🤦

Or Devils advocate... The Libs kicked the can down the road over the last 2 terms because they were more interested in getting reelected than dealing with the budget-service shortfall & not being there means it's now being addressed. Libs... Better economic managers 🙃 www.smh.com.au/national/nsw...

Take the Deepseek stanning with a degree of salt - asked for recent sexual harrasment cases in Oz- it cited Ewin v Vergara and said that the Fed Court dismissed the claim. Ewin was actually awarded record damages (at the time). In correcting Deepseek got the employer and the amount of damages wrong.

I'm all for govt plans to address the housing crisis but a policy that impacts on the sale of 0.3% of properties is not going to be the solution (1,823 of the 549,000 bought and sold) Would have been good to have that detail in the survey question 🤔 www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...

Millionaire Peter Dutton says he'll cut the public service as "that’s money that we could be spending elsewhere to help people". Does he realise the public service is more likely to do that helping than his rich consultant mates? www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...

What is this rubbish on Channel 9..."Trump's Triumph'. Absolutely stanning for Trump. Surely this does not reflect the average Australian's view of Trump's presidency

Wow.... Govt starts investigation after media discovers shonkiness and allows private org being investigated to be involved in setting the terms of the investigation. Hmmmm 🤔....yep.... nothing to see here 🤬 www.abc.net.au/news/2025-01...

So energy relief for all is a sugar hit...but increased tax write off for small business and the return of the tax free client lunch is just good for the economy 😉 #auspol www.abc.net.au/news/2025-01...

Antic & Canavan want to give workers the right to cap their super at 9% & allow 3% to go back into wages. That would mean someone on 100k would get an extra $40 a week and lose $3k a year of super balance. Not sure that its the vote winner they think it is www.news.com.au/finance/supe...

This is so annoying to read ... If people are more pessimistic and divided under an Albanese govt it's because Dutton (and the msm amplifying him) has made it so. Mr Negativity. No cooperation with the govt to pass policy on any of the things he says his govt will fix www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...

Sutherland Shire council once again leading the way to make sure funds are used for the benefit of ratepayers😏/s Frmer Mayor Pesce - If the councilors for the past 20 yrs have received this dodgy benefit from rate payers funds why shouldn't we continue the tradition! www.abc.net.au/news/2025-01...
