If we had a decent media, when Angus Taylor uses the words “our core beliefs”, he should be asked every time -
WHAT ARE “OUR” CORE BELIEFS?
Further, if he tries to answer with what they are not, he should be asked again.
WHAT ARE “OUR” CORE BELIEFS?
He has no idea.

These companies factor in such fines as a minor cost and inconvenience.
This should be billions at the very least; removal of existing rights, permissions, leases, and even ownership of land should also be penalties.
Alcoa should be kicked out of Australia, along with all US military.

Stupendously Unnecessary Vehicles ( #SUV ‘s) are killing and maiming many more people in accidents than less high-fronted ones. Phase them out, tax the off the roads, stop this lunacy now. They are not needed status symbols causing death and damage. More investment in #public #transport needed!

My son attended a school where you were not hired if teaching was all you had ever done. Same rule should apply to politicians.

legislation that quarantines a state authority from any sort of liability associated with criminal wrongdoing is inherently unlawful #auspol
So Sussan Ley was indeed placed on a glass cliff. True to Liberal party form.
Now they're back to a Morrison-era ex minister with a penchant for dodgy dealings and forging documents. Remember #watergate and the Clover Moore scandal?

A bucket is brighter than Angus, and is at least useful.
All that Angus has ever done is to help himself and his family to drain the national coffers.

I really wish more people would read this.
Australia's unemployment benefits are the lowest in the OECD.
The government claims that this is to encourage people to get a job and lowers unemployment.
Studies have shown that this is bullshit (quelle surprise)
