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.

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?

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?
โThe 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

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.

Hi Guys,
Hope everyone is winning ๐
It brings me no pleasure to write this, but in defence of my late fatherโs 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 Australiaโs 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 โAm 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 racismโespecially the kind being pushed by these misguided Hitler enthusiastsโhave no place anywhere, least of all in a world where Doc Neeson could write a song like AIEGSYFA.
I can assure you, Docโhimself an immigrant to Australiaโwould 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 letโs 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 fatherโs music in whatever maleficence you variously seem sโฆ
Doc Neeson's family has condemned the National Socialist Network's hijacking of the classic The Angel's song "Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again." Link to post: www.facebook.com/615415007/po...

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 Duttonโs proposed nuclear model he will ultimately need three times more water than coal to keep the lights on.
