Did you know Albanese has cost taxpayers approx $300k in Aviation fuel just this week alone... To save the planet 😂🤡
Complete disregard for tax payers and their money.
Approximate estimate only, as exact figures, routes, winds, stops and load are not public.
KC-30A cruise burn is typically 5.5–6.5 tonnes of jet fuel per hour.
Canberra–Antalya (~14,580 km) is roughly 16.5–17.5 hours: about 95–110 tonnes (~120,000–140,000 litres).
Antalya–Manila (~9,070 km) is roughly 10.5–11.5 hours: about 60–70 tonnes (~75,000–90,000 litres).
Combined total roughly 160–180 tonnes or 200,000–225,000 litres. Actual may differ with routing or refuelling stops.
In full preferential voting ranking the Greens last and Labor second last means your ballot only reaches them after every other candidate has been eliminated. In a typical Labor vs Liberal (or other preferred candidate) finish, it never gets there.
The only time the exact order between Labor and the Greens matters is in seats where the final two candidates are those two parties. Then whoever you ranked higher between them gets your preference.
Place your local "community independent" aka teal 3rd last to help.

Labor are parasites.
This is meerly mouthed platitudes if you've ever seen them, nothing more than a box ticking exercise.
Meanwhile also Labor 👇
We will remember them and those they left behind. Lest we forget.

Albanese... A man of the people...
I'm sure the misandrists will be rushing to the defence of the lady that was shoved away from the flop, or is this another one of those cases where "toxic masculinity" is alright because it's progressives not conservatives?
Pains me to say I used to think Andrew Twiggy Forest was a great Australia.
Watching Andrew live his life in elite circles grifting the nation that gave him so much has completely changed that outlook.
I can not stand the bloke and the sooner the scales are tilted away from his advantage the better.

I'm sorry, but what the actual fuck is wrong with these people? This is sickening.
It's shameful what this country is becoming, what a tragedy

He has to go.
This is disgusting, we have become a tinpot communist dictatorship.
Last night, David Farley MP brought the following matters to the attention of the leadership of One Nation.
Over the past few weeks, the Prime Minister has met with David privately. The Prime Minister initiated these meetings. This week, David received a letter from the Prime Minister stating that he had allocated David a personal staff position outside of One Nation’s unresolved staffing request. David did not request this allocation of staff. No reason was provided by the Prime Minister for the provision of this staff.
Following these discussions, senior ministers raised grant funding under the Sustainable Communities Program for the Murray Darling Basin. David did not initiate the discussion regarding this program.
Taken together, these actions have left David and One Nation deeply concerned that the government is seeking to use taxpayer funds to exert undue political influence over politicians.
We have decided to expose these grubby dealings because the public deserves to know what the Albanese Labor government is doing behind closed doors.
For months, One Nation has been fighting for fair, transparent and objective allocation of staffing for parliamentarians. The Prime Minister has refused to respond to these calls.
Yet astonishingly, this week the Prime Minister provided a letter to David directly granting a Personal Adviser 3 position, paid up to $200,000, effective immediately. David has rejected this unsolicited allocation.
Last month, One Nation Senator Pauline Hanson stood alongside the Member for Fowler, Dai Le MP and Senator for Western Australia, Fatima Payman to demand consistent, transparent and independently determined staffing allocations.
They stood together despite their political differences because this matters to our democracy. The Prime Minister should not personally control the resources available to his political opponents.
While this power has always been open to abuse, it has, in our view, been weaponised to an unprecedented extent under this Labor Government and this Prime Minister. One Nation introduced our Safe Staffing Guarantee Bill to stop this abuse of power. Labor, the Coalition and the Greens all united to block the Bill.
This is the type of politics that Australians are sick of. The Prime Minister is trying to drag One Nation down to his level of grubby politics. One Nation will have no part of it.
The second issue that needs to be brought into the open is the way in which the Albanese Labor government appears to be using public grant money to achieve their political objectives and paper over policy failures.
The government has directly raised the prospect of grants available to the Murray Darling Basin under the Sustainable Communities Program as compensation for water buybacks.
David and One Nation will always fight for Farrer’s fair share of public resources, but we will never allow grant funding to buy cooperation or silence on the issue of water advocacy, implicit or otherwise. We know the number one thing Farrer and other basin communities need is water. One Nation does not accept that devastating water buybacks are a foregone conclusion. A future One Nation government will end water buybacks.
This government’s actions are the type of broken politics that undermines the confidence Australians have in our democracy. It’s what Professor Anne Twomey has described as ‘grey corruption’.
One Nation will always stand up for the interests of all Australians. We won’t be bought or divided by this Prime Minister.
