Has everyone seen this 👀😩👇
please retweet, share, obviously
Lots of people don't know how Pauline Hanson votes.. Frightening stuff if you are struggling, it will only get much worse voting for Gina's girl 😔
Compare the pair.
Anthony Albanese and Pauline Hanson both entered federal politics in 1996.
Same year.
Same country.
Same broad opportunity to leave a mark.
Nearly 30 years later, here’s the comparison.
Pauline Hanson:
Bills originated and passed into law: zero.
Her great parliamentary hits include:
• a failed COVID vaccination bill
• a failed burqa ban
• a failed immigration plebiscite
• endless motions, stunts and tantrums that generate headlines and but no actual law
Her own political legacy is mostly framed around:
• blocking other people’s legislation
• forcing inquiries
• leveraging crossbench numbers
• complaining loudly enough that the media mistakes volume for achievement
Parliamentary attendance rate: 53%.
Which does raise the question if Pauline attended parliament a bit more often, might she have actually managed to get something done beyond scowling at modernity?
Anthony Albanese:
Bills passed into law in government include...
• legislating the 43% emissions reduction target
• 10 days paid domestic violence leave
• cheaper childcare through a higher subsidy cap
• energy price caps on gas and coal
• household energy bill relief
• establishing the National Anti-Corruption Commission
• the Help to Buy shared equity housing scheme
• banning foreign purchases of existing homes
• wiping billions in student debt
• full school funding reform
• RBA reform
• the under-16 social media ban
• the Future Made in Australia manufacturing package
• criminalising wage theft
• lifting minimum wages for the lowest paid
• delivering two consecutive budget surpluses
• EV fringe benefits tax exemptions
• aged care pay rises
• support for nurse and midwife wage rises
• legislated super on paid parental leave
Parliamentary attendance rate: 83%.
And that’s as the Prime Minister, with international travel, diplomatic obligations, cabinet management, legislation, party discipline, question time, and the small inconvenience of actually running the country.
Compare the pair.
One has spent decades in politics and can point to a list of legislation, reforms and institutional changes.
The other has spent decades in politics and can point to a list of grievances, failed bills, lost crusades and media appearances.
One knows how to govern.
The other knows how to linger.
One built policy.
The other built a brand.
One passed laws.
The other passed through parliament just often enough to remind us she’s still there.
Same starting line.
Nearly 30 years later.
One of them knows how to run the country.
The other knows how to run a permanent one-person protest stall inside it.
Compare the pair.
General advice only.
Please consider your personal circumstances before mistaking noise for achievement.
Hi @rowandean
Why did you not play the full response? (I've attached it for you)
Weird to accuse somebody of arrogance whilst choosing to misrepresent what they said.
Nicholas Reece once called you morally bankrupt and you lost your shit. He was 100% correct.

Too on point not to share, “Aussie reply to Trump rant about NATO not being there for us.
Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
"NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your fucking mouth. Credit (borrowed from) Jim Scroggins - original author 📷 unknown”
IMPORTANT: This is a "share post" to try to mess with X Right Wing algorithms.
If you see Trump as a threat to life on earth. If you are an ally to LGBTQ. If you actually believe and push for human rights. Retweet!
If I don't already follow you I will....
I’ve just been told that when my brother passed away on the M50 on Friday that several cars stopped and people sat around him until the ambulance came so he wasn’t alone, i really want to find them if people can please share 🤍
@MikeCarlton01 Question is whether prosecution, (or media company/journalist) made application opposing suppression. My son a CSA victim. His abuser (Aaron Holliday) got suppression order (prosecution unopposed). I engaged legal counsel & overturned the order next day. 2 more victims came fwd.
