@ElaineM11584892 Its smart. They know they can't solve the inflation caused by government spending, so they dribble a little inflation into wages and can pass the whole thing off as trying to help workers.
In political terms its good work, for us its $15 coffee
@NChvastek@SirMickW The thing is, its not a payrise. It's packaged like that for you, and you believe it, but its inflationary pressure tgat billionaires can leverage to increase their wealth.
Congrats on the own goal
@ausstockchick Millions of voters, its a good punt they'll appreciate relief enough, and not appreciate its a permanent lock in for higher prices on their groceries. Pretty good vote buying scheme
@RositaDaz48@Buddha2Peace Give the man credit. The rest of tge budget was so horrible tgat its pretty fair of him to believe the media wouldn't have the bandwidth to cover it all.
A recently arrived Sri Lankan national, Malith Shamera Fernando, who is a “transgender” far left extremist and Pro Hamas supporter has unbelievably avoided jail time for setting off a bomb inside the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre and possessing dozens more homemade explosives.
Shamera Fernando detonated a “homemade incendiary device” in the bathroom of the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre, seeking to cause “maximum damage” in the apparent terrorist attack.
However, the explosion caused a small fire in the middle stall which self extinguished but caused $4600 to the cubicle.
Fernando appeared in the Melbourne Magistrates’ Court after pleading guilty to charges including criminal damage, possessing items used to destroy or damage and drug charges.
Prosecutor Alex Turner told the court Fernando was captured on CCTV attending the day prior to “scope out” the event, labelling it a “targeted attack” based on her protest ideology which is Pro Hamas.
Police raided Fernando’s home at 1am on September 13, discovering 28 undetonated homemade incendiary devices and an “abundance of literature” relating to radical Islam.
The weapons and defence expo was the subject of significant protest, as protest groups linked it to the war in Gaza and thousands picketed outside the event.
Fernando’s solicitor, Angus Cameron, was full of excuses “she’s someone for whom rehabilitation is really important”
Referring to him by his new identity, Cameron added “Ms Fernando made a terrible, terrible error in judgment and she regrets it, she’s taken responsibility for it”
While prosecutors pushed for a term of imprisonment, the defense requested a community based order.
Magistrate Donna Bakos, obliged.
Shamera Fernando is now back walking amongst us, possibly planning his next terror attack.
Diversity is our strength.
Australians get 4 weeks holidays a year. So if a Man now in 🇦🇺 can declare he’s pregnant does that mean he can get 16 weeks paid maternity leave $$ & all the other $$ after having a baby?
ABC FAKE NEWS WANKERS: Pauline Hanson says under One Nation they’ll cut the $1.3 Billion in funding for the bias “wankers” and instead will only fund regional radio. Watch
Labor’s kryptonite.
Once the everyday Australians start running the numbers for themselves, the spell will break. This isn’t just hedge funds and billionaires objecting anymore, it’s ordinary investors, tradies, retirees and small business owners realising inflationary gains are being taxed as real wealth. This will be politically lethal.
