@AlisonAriotti - I took the photo of you with your kids at the tennis yesterday but I had absolutely no idea who you were. My apologies, but I don't watch @9NewsQueensland.
@Adam_Creighton Well, Gough’s government was excellent so Albo’s is good but not quite excellent. At the other end of the scale with the title of worst we have ever had is Scummo, followed by Abbott, McMahon and Howard. #LNPfail
@markbouris Except that we did have a national debt. So long as there is currency in the economy, by definition the federal government is in debt (albeit to itself). #MMT#DoubleEntryBookkeeping

@ChrisEconomist@TonyHWindsor Taxes are irrelevant once you find out what the real reasons we pay taxes are but neoliberal, neoclassical Thatchernomicists like Henry and Richardson just don’t get it. #MMT

@ChavuraStephen Our freedom of speech is exactly what our servicemen gave their lives for. It us telling aboriginal Australians that they cannot have the freedom to carry out a “Welcome to Country” ceremony that is insulting and disrespectful and just bloody rude!
@MRobertsQLD You’re a brain dead fucking moron Roberts. Let the man have his day in court. Let the courts decide. As a politician it is not your prerogative to decide of he is guilty or not. You’re a fucking disgrace!
@Schtang@AntonyGreenElec@MsDugibbley More likely the Nationals will pick it back up. Griffith is very strongly an LNP town. I used to run a polling booth in Griffith when Noel Hicks (The Nationals) was the local member (when it was in Riverina) and a very good one at that! Tim Fisher was The Nationals.
@Xerohero2015@AntonyGreenElec Tim will lose his seat (again). He only won it this time by a bee’s dick and with the Liberals being on the nose, it’s not likely he’ll be able to retain it. He might need to go back to the prayer room, bend over and pray for a miracle.
@CamelTamer@AntonyGreenElec Not sure that it would. Its a defined benefits scheme and based on the average of their salary at the their last 3 birthdays. It makes allowances for scenarios like this so that the member is not disadvantaged by dropping to a lower salary.
@Linda401gmail@MikeCarlton01 Wasn’t it Howard who once famously said “We will choose who comes to this country and the circumstances in which they come.”?
@Matt_Camenzuli Not true! Tell me you are economically illiterate and have no fucking idea how federal finances work without telling me you are economically illiterate and have no fucking idea how federal finances work.
