Your job provider cannot demand your payslips. It's a breach of the deed if they harass you for them by booking appts, or threaten/suspend your payment if you don't hand them over.
Contact me if your provider is doing this: [email protected] static1.squarespace.com/stat…

Look, I commend the effort.
But the reality is we don't need more de facto food banks. People like John need the ABC to push the government on raising the rate of all income support payments

If we raised the rate, we could also see an increase in entrepreneurship, volunteering, environmental stewardship, and creativity.

Capitalism demands poverty to exist so people will sell their Labour cheaply but good chat I’m blocking you now since you can’t have a discussion without an insult. Off you trot

We read these numbers all the time but what do they mean? 4.5% of 28 million is 1,260,000. RBA wants one and a quarter million people to be unemployed and our government spends 2 billion $$ per annum on so called job providers to smash the fuck out of jobseekers. Sociopathic

And yeah, if you rely on the intellectual labour of poor people or use us to give you a veneer of credibility your job doesn’t exist without us so maybe you should think about who’s actually earning the salary.

By refusing to #RaiseTheRate the Australian government is forcing people to become beggers so they can eat. Funding charities instead of people is monetising the poor.. fucking shameful. Do better @AlboMP @JEChalmers

Being gay isn’t a choice.
Being disabled isn’t a choice.
Being a refugee isn’t a choice.
Being born into poverty isn’t a choice.
But being cruel? That’s a choice.
Being greedy? That’s a choice.

The DSP payment is below the poverty line & the harsh eligibility criteria has pushed thousands of DSP applicants onto the even worse JobSeeker rate.
You can't fuck these people over any worse & the right wing press are a morons for trying

Forgive me for sounding like a broken record, but we are not a Christian nation. We are a nation where you are free to be a Christian.
Your religion guides you, not all of us. It’s as simple as that.

Yet he wants to ignore the fact we have unemployment baked into the economy and so many people with a reduced capacity to work etc

Agreed, you can't pull yourself up by the bootstraps when you have no boots.

I'm saying no one needs to be forced into poverty and destitution because they are unable to work or they are unable to find work. We can simply choose for that not to be the case.

What did you get on Budget Night?
Calm down — and remember that one in 12 people are in poverty, and that number is increasing, and they have not been this poor in over half century, even under the brutal Howard regime.
Jobseeker is now worse than it was during the Howard years, in terms of how far it sits below the poverty line

It's disgraceful.
When even the business council says Jobseeker is too low...
>40% are not able to work fulltime due to disability or chronic illness. Employers aren't interested.
Large proportion are >50 & dealing with ageist hiring policies.
Plus structural unemployment.
