@JEChalmers Seniors who want to stay in their big homes should be able to convert part of their property for rentals without charging the home owner with capital gains or tax that rental income for those over 65. More #rentals, more income for #seniors, especially #women.
@markhumphries thank goodness for YOU! We are up to our eyeballs in bad news, flood levels and general wrongness and you keep us in stitches. LOL at your Wed nite post-730 report blitz on What's Gotta Go! Well, may it never be you, @markhumphries
Time for communities and local groups to run their own emergency desktop scenarios and invite the LGAs and emergency services. There will be light-bulb moments.
#qanda - charity incorporated associations running childcare are at risk of privacy data breach to outsiders. Ripe for abuse. Soft targets @Qanda#childcare#databreach
#Qanda Oh c'mon George Brandis, this is political now and Assange is an Australian! It's politicians like you that Australians should be very concerned when they go abroad. Terrible reputation.
#thedrum Preparedness does not win elections. Lack of gov investment because the disaster might not happen.
Lessons to be learned by communities not yet hit by disaster. We don't have to "burn to learn." We have the most to lose and aren't running for office.
@AlboMP "The press was to serve the governed, not the governors" so said Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black, US gov vs New York Times, 1971. Remind Pres #Biden of this precedent. First Biloela, now #JulianAssange. Bring him home.
@JamesMerlinoMP - Time for gov funded training to develop more childcare workers now. We all have caps on taking more children because we don't have staff. Allow them to start immediately once enrolled and to bring their own kids with them to work. Can't fix #childcare w/o staff
#InsidersABC so gas suppliers say there is no extra gas in the pipeline for domestic use and David Littleproud says there is. So who's telling the truth? @InsidersABC
@abc730#childcare centres can't find qualified staff, required by legislation, to meet the demand. We have spaces but not the staff to meet ratios. Many have left the sector. Compliance management is a huge burden for nfp childcare ctrs too. #undervalued#underfunded
