Is this right? #auspol

We need to show fellow voters that we can’t trust Christian Right political candidates to tell us what voting for them means for our rights & freedoms. Even if they tell us which beliefs & goals they have relinquished, can we trust them?

Which Karl will become Australia’s Joe Rogan? Karl Stefanovic or Karl Sandilands? Stefanovic has already started, but no doubt Sandilands will be going “independent” too - let off the leash outside ACMA rules to spread lies, hate and bigotry for profit the quickest. It will be ugly to watch!

Cut-price Costello Tim Wilson on Sky just now: "It’s very clear to me that when there’s an increase in petrol prices, Jim Chalmers collects more excise revenue."
Excise is not based on price changes. It's indexed twice a year in line with inflation.
