Imagine a government that just gets down to business.
Rather than an endless cycle of bait and switch.
"Our whole nation benefits when we make it easier for people to access education.” - Anthony Albanese
But only on proviso....

A Whistleblower Protection Authority is just what we need to prevent corruption occurring in the first place.
Empower workers to raise red flags & keep people safe.
Recoup stolen funds
& deliver justice for those suffering from abuse of power.

I wish there was a Whistleblower Protection Authority when I blew the whistle in 2020. My life may have been different. Under the useless NACC & the broken promises of the Albanese Labor Govt, don't blow the whistle under this Govt. @jmwhistleblower @worldzonfire @Peter_Fox59
ALP/LNP regularly excuse their behaviour with "but the other one does it!"
Straight off the school grounds.
If you are also using this excuse,
how are you a better option?
We set our own high standards & won't drop them just because others have.

talking about homelessness.

I believe strongly that we can end homelessness.
If we prioritise it.
#changethepriorities
Lets be the progressive state
we say we are.
Cost of living.
STOP.
think about it.
You boast about a surplus
whilst casually tossing out a phrase which essentially says people are struggling
to
stay
ALIVE

#povertyisapolicychoice
ALP are making a CHOICE
And its NOT to address and prevent poverty.
The Albanese Labor Government has delivered the first back-to-back surpluses in nearly 2 decades.
Our surpluses help fight inflation, pay down Liberal debt, and made room for cost-of-living relief for people under pressure.

Just like @MurdochCadell now locked up in prison.
Or @Richard_D_Boyle being prosecuted for raising awareness of predatory practices in the tax office.
How will you protect those you are using for clicks? @EmiliaTerzon @ABCaustralia

Charity is reactive policy.
It is allowing people to suffer and making them beg.
Rather than addressing the issues and providing #empowerment
Whistleblowers stand up for us at great personal sacrifice.
They are strong and put #ethics before profit.
If our gov won't protect our whistleblowers.
The whistleblowers will come for them.

Why is our government acknowledging that educators, nurses
and therefore every other occupation which keeps the country running,
Don't earn enough to buy a house....
Then addresses only the symptom
But leaves the problem to fester.
Address the problem.
#endnegativegearing
ALP minister on after this clip was spruiking the program as the
ONLY way
our nurses and educators
could afford a home.....
W T F
Thats shameful.
Have the courage to fix the market.
STOP pandering to investors

Its not enough to say we will end fossil fuels
and then not.
Not enough to start building a nuclear plant that will take 15 or more years to get online.
We need to repair the damage done.

When asked at the Zero Waste Festival.
Whats the one thing you want people to walk away with....
What do you think my answer was?
Take a look.
I may have strayed off topic

David is lying to us all. There is only one crime statistic that has increased, and that's domestic and family violence.
We are focused on ending male violence, LNP doesn't give a damn. Choose positive politics, not the politics of fear and smear.
Australian Progressives retweeted
ALP and LNP refuse to recognise the mass suffering happening. A housing crisis that needs drastic action NOW.
As well as a slow investment for the future.
We NEED to increase our minimum stock of publichousing, like what Albo's mum got. >10%
Do it.
Australian Progressives retweeted
Qld Labor is only creating enough social and affordable homes to continue existing stock levels. 53k affordable homes in 20 years means bugger all when 900k total houses need to be built.
Labor is failing us.

In Australia kids are deemed criminally responsible at 10, but social media irresponsible at 14.
Alot of the people being banned are helping older family members navigate the internet.
We need to discuss why this has happened? Why are kids stuck on social media? Why don't parents have time with them? What blocks them from doing f2f irl? What are we missing?
#empowerment
We must protect our young from social media’s unfiltered filth, says @AlboMP. Yet this unfiltered filth from Kyle and Jackie - the ARN radio show that every kid can listen to - is just fine. Guess who has significant stakes in ARN Media? youtu.be/0Jnz3ZBHIVM?si=G5LA…

We have a chance to bring change in politics for Queensland, but time is running out! Labor and LNP are both failing us, we need positive politics
