Yes I know someone who has used Self Managed Fund to buy property. They then roll-over the Capital Gains when they sell a property. It is set up to avoid Tax.

They lynched Allen Brooksβ€”and sold postcards of it.

10,000 watched. Kids cheered. No one was charged.

They called it justice.
We call it genocide.
Now they’re banning books so you never find out.

This is a full out attack upon the working poor. Shameful. Wrong. Bad for our country.

Maybe terminating a large number of IRS employees ?

WTF it is eugenics. Only the strong & healthy will be permitted to survive.

Has the dubious honour of being kicked out of Parliament by the Speaker more than any other MP. QT should be fun 😁

Just curious, what’s the tariff on a $400 million jet from Qatar?

No job is worth losing your self-respect & dignity. Reminds of the sycophants Trump surrounds himself with. GR obviously considers herself a female Trump.

I believe you should have retained your Ministry. I am very upset as is my family & friends that Marles (whom none of us like) has put his ambition first. Your support for the Palestinians was a lone voice 😒

Control Meltdown Left Planes β€˜Flying Blind’ at Major Airport Air traffic controllers lost contact with planes flying into Newark Liberty International Airport last week. A β€œfried piece of copper wire” may be to blame.

Planes were briefly β€œflying blind” into Newark Liberty International Airport last week after a communications blackout occurred. Sources said the outage lasted 90 seconds on April 28th and shook up the on-duty controllers so much that some were placed on β€œtrauma leave.”

A lot of the reforms Labor had on its agenda were blocked in the Senate. Labor never gets a co-operative & cohesive Senate. So much could be achieved. The Labor left will be pushing a stronger social agenda as well as action for Palestine whilst balancing spending debt & inflation.

Cal-Maine, the biggest egg producer, has been accused of using bird flu as cover to jack up prices and triple its profits from a year ago.

It also received $22M in federal aid.

While you're getting gouged at the grocery store, your tax dollars are subsidizing corporate greed.

A selfie-style photograph shows Millie Bobby Brown and a young man, Owen Cooper, smiling at the camera. They appear to be at a Liverpool FC football stadium, as the background shows the red seats of a large, mostly full stadium and a green football pitch. Millie Bobby Brown is on the left side of the frame, and Owen Cooper is slightly behind and to her right. Both are wearing dark-colored jackets and white shirts. Millie Bobby Brown has her dark hair pulled back in braids. Owen Cooper is wearing a dark suit jacket and a black tie. A lanyard with the word "Anfield" is visible around his neck. The lighting suggests it is daytime.
Above the photo is a tweet from the official Liverpool FC account, @LFC, which reads: "Millie Bobby Brown and Owen Cooper here to support the Reds πŸ€©πŸ”΄". Below the tweet are engagement icons for likes (720), retweets (4.1K), quote tweets (183K), and views (20M).
Above the Liverpool FC tweet is another tweet from a user named Tom Nestor (@tomnestorcomic) with the text: "He literally stabbed a 13 year old girl".

It has been a very dirty nasty campaign. Women have been singled out. Whether as a Candidate or a volunteer. Never seen anything like it.

Protesters to Rally in Brooklyn After Pro-Israel Crowd Assaults Woman The police were investigating the attack in Crown Heights, where hundreds of pro-Israel demonstrators surrounded a woman and hurled slurs at her. More protests were expected on Monday.

Jewish protesters surround a Muslim woman. Threatening her with rape & racially vilifying her. And if we criticise them we are anti-semitic

Thanks. I think she is trying to get the Jewish vote but it is really upsetting. At least my Senate picks are all known policies re Palestine.

After voting for the Independent candidate in the pre-polls I have since found out she supports the defunding of the Palestinian aid agency UNRWA. I was so angry. She & the Liberal candidate have the same policy on Palestine. It didn't all come out until 6 days ago.

What is happening at a number of pre-polls & not getting the publicity it should is the bullying & aggression by some of the LNP volunteers. I guess when your leader is a thug & a bully it filters down. I would say this is the dirtiest election I have known.

If polls are correct the people are going to vote the Dick out of Dickson.

Antony Green & his knowledge is irreplaceable. I tuned in on election night eager to hear Antony & his predictions. He will be missed hugely by we political tragics.

This is what a rigged economy looks like:

In the 1970s, CEOs made 27 times more than the average worker.

In the 1980s, CEOs made 48 times more than the average worker.

This decade, CEOs are making 354 times more than the average worker.

That has got to change.

Wearing a bright blue suit, texting, and then sleeping at Pope Francis’s funeral. What an embarrassing mess.

Once you disregard the legal rights of immigrants, everything is on the table

Today, they are arresting judges

Tomorrow it could be Democratic members of Congress

Don’t let the arrest of a Federal Judge distract you from the announcement that ICE can enter anyone’s home without a warrant to look for migrants.
