True.

But remember we all voted a couple of weeks ago to set a Social Standard.

Albo took to the election his barbaric Mutual Obligation Policy.

A policy that denies women access to food, medicine and shelter as a punishment.

Consent for this brutal abuse of women was in a majority.

I would think it would come under "abuse".

Denying women and people with disabilities access to food, medicine and shelter as a punishment - is abuse.

And abuse can't be improved.

Only stopped.

Albo had three years to stop it.

And refused.

Jen?

Are you own expectations Albo will stop abusing women and people with disabilities?

Via the barbaric Privatised Mutual Obligation Policy?

Or like the previous three years of government, Albo will simply let this brutal and barbaric abuse continue to roll on?

Please remember Sussan Ley is a huge supporter of the barbaric Mutual Obligation Policy.

A policy that denies vulnerable women on Centrelink payments access to food, medicine and shelter as a punishment.

Peter?

At this election Albo is asking Labor voters to stand up in public and give their Consent to the barbaric Mutual Obligation Policy.

A policy that denies women access to food, medicine and shelter as a punishment.

Why are you advocating a vote for the abuse of women?

Danielle Gusmaroli still works for News Ltd despite attempting to incite an antisemitic incident.
Antionette Lattouf, sacked by the ABC for sharing a Human Rights Watch post that the ABC actually covered in their news reports.
Thatโ€™s the sorry state of the Australian media.

How the SmartCard Continues the Failures of the Indue Card The SmartCard replaced the Indue Card, but has anything changed? What is the truth behind its restrictions and privatisation?

โ€œThe SmartCard is the Indue Card rebranded, with the same fundamental flaws. While the government insists it improves financial management, it continues to restrict autonomy, limit access to essential services, and help private corporations over welfare recipients.โ€

Here's where your argument falls over -

Albo will ask you to vote to deny women access to food, medicine and shelter as a punishment - via the Mutual Obligation Policy.

I looked at 35 years of data to see how Australians vote. Hereโ€™s what it tells us about the next election Women and young people are key voter demographics for politicians to win over. Data show how both groups have become more left-leaning over time.

"Young Australian women are moving sharply to the left. But unlike in many other countries, young Australian men are also shifting left, just at a slower pace"

Almost 2 million Workforce Australia payments have been suspended in the past year, with devastating impact Unrealistic criteria and poor communication are causing people who need it most to lose an important income support.

Sure -

Albo held hands with Peter Dutton in June 2022 to pass the Workforce Australia Legislation.

Legislation created by Scott Morrison and Peter Dutton.

Which includes the Mutual Obligation Policy.

Here's what happened next and is ongoing -

Duttonโ€™s dangerous dance: decrying one form of racism while stoking all the others - The Shot Race-baiting and dog-whistling while pretending to care about hate crimes is a precarious dance for Peter Dutton.

My latest for @theshot.net.au. If Dutton is so appalled by anti-semitism, maybe he shouldn't embolden actual Nazis?

Hi Guys, 
Hope everyone is winning ๐Ÿ™‚
It brings me no pleasure to write this, but in defence of my late fatherโ€™s legacy and, quite frankly, basic human decency, I feel compelled to address the source of a testicular discomfort caused only by the most amoebish of modern Australiaโ€™s ideological cesspools: Neo-Fascism.
I generally hate discussing my personal views in public but this needs to be said;
For anyone who watched ABC's Four Corners program last night, you may have, like us, been disgusted to notice that the iconic audience call-back to The Angels' anthem โ€˜Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Againโ€™ had been hijacked by a group of, at best, ideologically naive dickheads, and at worst, gutless, fascist, neo-Nazi filth.
I understand that there is a lot of political, cultural, and socioeconomic tension in the world right now, and that in some cases, people are letting their tempers flare. However, it should go without saying that all forms of racismโ€”especially the kind being pushed by these misguided Hitler enthusiastsโ€”have no place anywhere, least of all in a world where Doc Neeson could write a song like AIEGSYFA.
I can assure you, Docโ€”himself an immigrant to Australiaโ€”would be absolutely mortified and enraged to see his music and lyrics being co-opted to promote fascist or racially intolerant ideologies.
None of us are perfect, but letโ€™s at least have the courage, strength, and decency to do our best. Doc would never have stood for this kind of dangerous lunacy, and frankly, no one should. If anyone reading this still harbours these Nazi-inspired far-right beliefs, with all the goodwill I have, I strongly encourage you to reconsider how this hatred and fanaticism is truly benefiting you or your families.
In the meantime, please, if only even for the love and respect of a killer rock-and-roll tune, my family and I would greatly appreciate it if you would, unequivocally and incontestably, refrain from using my fatherโ€™s music in whatever maleficence you variously seem sโ€ฆ

Water is our most precious resource.

But Peter Dutton wants to spend $600 billion in taxpayer money on one of the most water intensive energies, nuclear.

Under Peter Duttonโ€™s proposed nuclear model he will ultimately need three times more water than coal to keep the lights on.
