If it’s too low for some, it’s too low for all. Over 55s need more to live on. So do under 55s. Life isn’t cheaper if you’re younger. 1.4m on low income support - this leaves most behind
No one left behind* *so long as they are over 55

Reckon Labor will eventually do the right thing and raise unemployment benefits. Just by a little, but something. Issue is threatening to derail their budget narrative, which needs to be about addressing cost of living

1/ The Liberal party is pushing hard the lie that their problems are entirely down to Morrison. Why? Because if it’s all his fault then they don’t need to change they just need to get rid of him. It’s a way of absolving themselves of blame #auspol theage.com.au/politics/victo…

ABC have given an update on what Dutton’s response to this question was, stating he gave no evidence and has already been “reprimanded” on this by experts for using it as a “political football” #abcnews

Is it a merger between One Nation and the Liberal Party ? Or just a takeover ? 👇🤔 #auspol

Blaming Labor for a Liberal MP leaving the Liberal shadow cabinet because of a position taken by the Liberal leader he does not agree with is a stretch even by today's standards

I've been waiting for this one: "It doesn’t matter that these positions are contradictory. His objection is not about logic. It is born of the simple fact that it is easier to throw a referendum than win an election. His success is the country’s loss." thesaturdaypaper.com.au/opin…

I am utterly disgusted with the duplicitous position taken by the Dutton led Liberal party. The sophistry, lies and characterisation of the Voice is designed to mislead and confuse. A plague on their overtly partisan political intent.

Would the NSW result have been different under full preferential voting? I estimate the Liberal Party won an extra 4 seats through optional preferential voting, Ryde and Terrigal from Labor, and Pittwater and Willoughby from Independents. antonygreen.com.au/how-many-… #nswpol #nswvotes

a) you probably know by now that I’ve long considered TASKMASTER to be one of the greatest television shows ever made b) put this video in the dictionary under “double take.”

Here is footage of their pro-insurrection song, sung by the “J6 choir” and cutting out parts of the US anthem to replace with Trump’s own words. The screen is playing footage of cops being attacked. Proceeds of the song go to jailed insurrectionists.
