The Australian Government is doing all it can to get people into their own homes and the RBA is doing all it can to get them out.

Can someone “please explain” to One Nation, the difference between a slogan and a fully costed and economically modelled policy. They seem to not understand the difference.
While you’re at it; perhaps also explain that an entire platform built around nothing but random, indiscriminate cuts to government spending without any meaningful evidence of inefficiency beyond “I don’t like it” and without any associated plan to replace essential services is not going to “make Australia great” (again)…

Every time someone criticises the quality of our politicians, conservatives fire back with ‘but the country’s still a mess.’
What mess exactly?
Australia has universal healthcare. Free public education. A minimum wage. Compulsory superannuation. One of the highest standards of living on earth. We are not at war. We are not in famine. We are not living under authoritarian rule.
By virtually every global measure, Australia is one of the best countries on earth to be born into. That didn’t happen by accident.
Are there real challenges? Yes. Housing affordability is a genuine crisis. Cost of living is hurting people. Those are legitimate issues that deserve real policy responses.
What they don’t deserve is being weaponised by people who have no intention of solving them.
Because ask yourself — when did you last hear Hanson or One Nation offer an actual successful, budgeted policy solution to housing? To cost of living? Not a grievance. Not a target. An actual successful policy.
Their entire business model is convincing you the country is a disaster so you stay angry enough to vote for them. Scared people don’t ask hard questions. Trump still has “concepts of a health plan” -while the entire country can’t afford healthcare.
Every foundation that makes Australia great was built by progressive governments, opposed at every turn by conservatives.
Medicare. Superannuation. The NDIS. The minimum wage. The National Apology. The two biggest back-to-back budget surpluses in history after inheriting a trillion dollars of Liberal debt.
A decade of Coalition government gave us Robodebt. Sports rorts. A delayed national integrity commission. And a senator found guilty of racially vilifying a PhD engineer.
The country isn’t a mess. But we will be when the people running it have no idea what they were doing
Which of these three countries is LEAST likely to use a nuclear weapon in a conflict USA, Israel or Iran?
I am a Vietnam Veteran and thinking of Anzac Day coming up. Do you think people will think less of us veterans with all the mass killings going on in the Middle East? I once thought that human life was valued by our side. Not these days it seems.
Can someone explain to me why the Reserve Bank punish the people least likely to cause inflation & the most likely to find it difficult to pay their mortgage & struggle to fill their cars with fuel have to pay the price. In the meantime the most wealthy get a boost.

BREAKING: A beer was thrown at President Trump during a press conference this afternoon in Washington. Trump was unharmed. Since the beer was a draft,... he was able to dodge it.

Would this be a good time to send Angus Taylor to the US to bring back our oil reserves?

An Open Letter to #AngusTaylor
Dear trembling, spreadsheet-fondling goober,
I was a long-term Liberal voter.
Not casual. Not “occasionally ticked the box and moved on.”
I had the badges. The T-shirts. The “Back in Black” coffee mug.
Good Lord, I even bought Scott Morrison’s ukulele off eBay.
I was committed, mate.
And then you did this.
You made #TimWilson Shadow Treasurer.
What in the deregulated free market hell were you thinking?
You’ve put Tim up against Jim!! @JEChalmers - How in a drunken field of poisoned grass could you do that?
Did you workshop this? Did anyone in the room say, “Angus, maybe don’t send a pamphlet to fight a policy document”?
Because here’s how this lands:
Jim Chalmers is calm. Competent. Measured.
He’s written budgets. Delivered budgets. Fronted the country.
He’s had to answer for inflation, debt, deficits — the whole economic lasagna.
And you’ve sent Dim Tim into that arena armed with vibes and a LinkedIn endorsement.
Let’s not even do the full credential autopsy — it’s indecent.
One has years in senior economic portfolios, nearly four as Treasurer, has delivered fiscal updates, and actually been accountable for outcomes.
The other?
• Zero years as Treasurer or Shadow Treasurer prior to 2026.
• Longest stint in any serious portfolio — barely long enough to remember the Wi-Fi password.
• No responsibility for national debt.
• No responsibility for budgets.
• No responsibility for inflation.
And now he’s meant to stride in and start yelling about who should be “sacked” for debt?
Angus.
WHAT WERE YOU SMOKING?
You don’t send a TED Talk to a Treasury fight.
I watched the announcement like a man watching his dog reverse over his own foot.
-I cried.
-I burnt the T-shirt.
-Threw the coffee mug out the window.
-The ukulele is now a backscratcher and occasionally a doorstop.
You didn’t just misread the room.
You misread the country.
This isn’t factional chess. This is economic credibility. And you just put it in the hands of a bloke whose longest policy commitment was arguing about free speech on campus.
I’m devastated. I’m disoriented. I’m considering voting for the Australian Party of Mild Titillation just out of emotional spite.
This is what you’ve done to me.
Sort yourself out.
Yours in stunned disbelief,
#Noisy
