Hilariously, the AFR is showing just how absurd is the scare campaign against the super tax changes. They give an eg where someone's super goes from $2m to $3.18m in a year! Yep a $1.18m increase. How much extra tax? $1,528! OMG!! THAT'S OUTRAG... err... oh actually that's bugger all

Think you might one day have $3m in your super & be affected by the super tax changes? Ok, you are 18yo, you just got a job - it pays... $150k! Give yourself a 3.7% annual pay rise. Never take time off for study, kids or illness. You will retire with $3,017,016 moneysmart.gov.au/how-super-wo...

A Dutton Government would be bad for workers, education, health, public services, the environment... the list goes on. Great to be out in Belconnen this morning. #DontRiskDutton ☢️ @australianunions.bsky.social @nteunion.bsky.social

If only teachers, unions, education experts and the Greens had warned governments that underfunding was destroying our public school system!

What kind of society finds it acceptable that 150 people can hoard $600 billion while millions live in or on the edge of poverty? The Greens are fighting back. We'll tax the billionaires to pay for a better life for all Australians. 💚

In NSW the LNP privatised Fine Arts at TAFE making it only for the rich. Teachers were sacked. Labor could fix this. Please sign this petition. www.change.org/p/save-advan...

Without Labor’s Fee-Free TAFE, Molly wouldn’t be able to study nursing right now. And that’s exactly why we’re making it free TAFE permanent, nationwide – to give more Australians the opportunity to gain skills and get ahead.

This is what climate change looks like. Devastating wildfires are spreading around the planet as temperatures continue to increase. We need to pull the plug on fossil fuels - the primary cause for global climate change. And we need to do it fast. www.npr.org/sections/the...

Under Labor, free TAFE is here to stay. We want to support more people like Susan to gain skills and get ahead.

Jasmyne always wanted to be a nurse, like her mum. Now she’s able to study nursing – fee free, thanks to Labor. We need more nurses to care for our loved ones, so it makes sense to make it easier for people like Jasmyne to gain skills through TAFE. That’s why Free TAFE is here to stay with Labor.

Our government maintains these complicated punishment systems so that it can say that people receiving welfare are fulfilling their “mutual obligations”. Mutual obligation is a big lie: it’s not mutual, and there is no obligation for the government to hold its side of the deal

Merry Xmas to all the workers who give up their own family and friend time today, but especially those in the aged care and disability sector who often provide the family experiences for others. You are undervalued champions. May you and those you support have the best day possible. 🎄 🎁 ❤️

It’s deeply distressing the Attorney General has approved extraditing Dan Duggan to the US. He has chosen to send this Australian father of 6 to a politicised prosecution and done so just before Christmas hoping everyone has switched off from the news. This is so wrong.

These people make me ill

Finished my cert III at TAFE

Now that I've successfully completed two (2) TAFE courses this year, there's never been a better time to re-share my major project from the Diploma of Screen & Media course: my "documentary" about a quiz show host trying to rebuild her life after a spectacular fall from grace over a single hot chip.

Thank you. They were overwhelmed by the social aspect of having to mingle with people xxx Tafe has been a top option for a while now.

It can be a sneaky way into a degree that you’d otherwise struggle to get into. I started with tafe and ended up with a masters degree. And you get the practical training you don’t normally get with a degree. That might put it in a positive light. Good luck!

Did Abbott, Turnbull or Morrison ever have any plans on Early childhood education, child care TAFE, , Uni, manufacturing, permanent jobs, renewables , housing, manufacturing or Aged care ? Everything seemed to chaotic, on the cheap ( including labour) outsourced and profits for mates .

TAFE has been changing lives for decades. That’s why Labor introduced Fee-Free TAFE, to make it easier for people like Jeremy to train, upskill and get ahead. Already, more than 500,000 fee-free places have been taken up.

There are no courses for bricklaying apprentices between Newcastle and the QLD border after TAFE closed the section at Coffs Harbour TAFE. #TAFECutsNeverAgain

I'm uncomfortable with the praise for Leunig. I mean, he did some really lovely stuff, that is true. But are people aware that he sexually abused his sister? Are we willing to dismiss that merely by adding "deeply flawed" to his obituary? Is sexual abuse okay as long as the person is talented?
