@ScottSavage6669@GetUp Its typical of the deranged left. Disrespectful, cant handle people having different views to them. Cant logically debate so resort to name calling, shouting over people and stunts like this. Vile people.
🚨BREAKING: The “taking the knee” trend has exploded across Britain.
Thousands are kneeling for Henry Nowak specifically to the track:
Michael Jackson “They Don’t Really Care About Us.”
The left are in a complete meltdown.
Anyone else feel like Australian corporate life has become completely cooked?
Not sure if this is a rant or if I’m just burnt out, but Australian corporate life feels genuinely cooked at the moment.
Hiring is a mess. So many jobs feel like they’re already filled before they’re advertised, but you still have to jump through 3–4 interviews, do the awkward “why do you want to work here” dance, then get ghosted or sent a generic rejection three weeks later.
Then you finally get a job and half the time it’s endless restructures, new priorities, new managers, new acronyms, new “ways of working”, but somehow the actual workload only ever goes one way.
The fake positivity does my head in too. Everyone pretending to be excited about “change” and “culture” while quietly drowning. Morning teas, RUOK emails, wellness webinars, all while people are doing the work of two or three roles and stressing about rent, groceries, fuel, mortgages, insurance, whatever else has gone up this week.
And the commute stuff is insane. Dragging people back into offices so they can sit on Teams calls, lose two hours a day travelling, and spend more money they don’t have, all for “collaboration”.
I don’t know. It just feels like the social contract has completely fallen apart. Work harder, get paid less in real terms, live further away, own less, pretend to be grateful, and keep smiling.
Maybe I’m just jaded, but it honestly feels like a lot of us are becoming strangers in our own country. Like everything is technically “fine”, but it doesn’t feel like it’s built for normal people anymore.
Anyone else feeling this, or have I just had one too many corporate town halls?
What if I told you Australia has a political nuclear button built into the Constitution?
It’s called Section 57 ❤️
Most Australians have never even heard of it, but it gives the Senate the power to stop legislation and force the country back to an election through what’s called a double dissolution🤔
That means:
Every MP loses their seat,
Every Senator goes back to the people and Australians get another vote on the future direction of the country.
Today - we have…..
Your country being invaded.
Broken promises on power prices.
Broken promises on tax.
Broken promises on super.
Record migration (invasion) during a housing crisis.
Young Australians locked out of home ownership.
Small businesses drowning in costs while Canberra lectures everyone about “fairness.”
And now they want the Senate to just wave this budget through like none of that happened. I say “Treason”
The Senate is not supposed to be a rubber stamp. It exists to scrutinise governments when public trust starts collapsing. Millions of Australians feel like the social contract has been broken.
Work harder.
Pay more tax.
Own less.
And somehow be grateful for it?
A double dissolution is a constitutional reset button and I WANT the reset.

I'm young.
You're f-ing Budget just led to my rent being raised.
Can't save - because you tax it.
Can't borrow - because I can't save.
Can't rent - because you brought in two MILLION people to compete against.
You wouldn't know what young people are doing because you live in in a cliff-top mansion, driven around in commonwealth car, or you're sitting in the chairman's lounge at Qantas.
When was the last time you caught the train through the city and felt like you were in a foreign country?
If you're a renter in Australia GOOD LUCK!
1. Current lnadlords may very well sell up their investment properties in the next twelve months before neagtive gearing changes come in.
2. Potential new investors will baulk at investment proerties with the CGT changes which combined with negative gearing changes will result in a decline in rental propeties coming onto the market.
3. With immigration at records high and with estimates it will continue to grow, competitions for rental properties has gone from tough to nearly impossible for some.
4. Homelessness will rise, not decline. Everything Albo and Chalmers is talking about in regards to making home ownership is a lie, the elephant in the room though is going to be rental vanacancies which inevitably will decline.
Australia has just become a very dark place for so many Australians while Albo and Jim have ensured they keep their riches through grandfathering these changes. In doing so they've locked in their wealth while sending god knows how many Australians into poverty.
ABSOLUTE CRIMINALS!!!
Dear RSL Committee,
I am writing as the descendant of ANZACs and several generations of Australian military personnel. This morning I attended my local ANZAC Day service to honour the service and sacrifice of our soldiers, past and present.
While I appreciate the broader themes that are sometimes included in commemorative events, I was disappointed that a significant portion of this morning’s service focused on lectures about multiculturalism, racism, misinformation and disinformation. The speakers emphasised diversity and global issues, yet when I looked around the large crowd, I saw primarily Australians, New Zealanders, and some Indigenous people, those whose families have long been part of our nation. I did not see the groups being highlighted in the addresses.
I had hoped to hear stories of local heroes, acts of bravery, courage, and sacrifice, the very reasons we gather each ANZAC Day. Instead, many of us left feeling we had been lectured on social and political matters rather than given the opportunity to reflect on the service and legacy of those who defended our country.
Our soldiers fought and died to protect Australia and the Australian way of life. It is understandable that many attendees, particularly those with family connections to the military, feel that political or ideological messages, especially those not widely shared by the broader community, detract from the solemn purpose of the day.
I respectfully suggest that the RSL consider limiting or carefully reviewing invitations to politicians and speakers who bring partisan or divisive topics to ANZAC Day services. The focus should remain on remembrance, honour, and the shared values of courage, mateship, and sacrifice that define the Anzac spirit. Many of us who attend these services each year, quiet, ordinary Australians who value our traditions, would be grateful if the day remained centred on paying tribute to our veterans and their families.
I want to sincerely thank the RSL for the important work you do in preserving the memory and legacy of those who made the ultimate sacrifice. Your efforts are deeply appreciated by many in the community.
I hope you will consider this feedback in the spirit it is offered, as it reflects the views of a great many who hold ANZAC Day close to their hearts.
With respect and gratitude,
From a patriotic true blue Australian.

We have approximately 21 days a year for indigenous matters
About 60 days a year for LGBTIQ issues
Is it too much for veterans to have just one morning
The year is 1950. Your doctor lights a cigarette and tells you smoking is fine. He read it in a study. He is telling the truth about having read it. He does not know, or is not saying, that the study was funded by the tobacco industry.
The year is 1958. Your doctor tells you to eat less fat. The evidence is contested. The contestation is not in the public messaging. The food industry has been helpful in clarifying which findings deserve attention. Some researchers who published contradictory data have been quietly defunded. Ancel Keys is on the cover of Time magazine.
The year is 1962. Your doctor prescribes thalidomide to your pregnant wife for morning sickness. It has been approved. The FDA gave it the green light in Europe. Twelve thousand children will be born with severe limb malformations before anyone in an official capacity acknowledges the problem. The families are told the drug was safe. The drug was approved. Both of these things remain true.
The year is 1972. Your doctor prescribes Valium. Britain is in the grip of a benzodiazepine wave that will last two decades. The dependency risk is known internally. It is not shared. Your doctor is not lying to you. He was not told either.
The year is 1999. Your doctor prescribes Vioxx for your arthritis. It is newer than ibuprofen, well-tolerated, and Merck has a study showing it works. Merck also has internal data suggesting it roughly doubles the risk of heart attack. This data will not reach your doctor for four more years. Fifty thousand people are estimated to have died in the interim. Merck eventually settles for 4.85 billion dollars. No criminal charges are brought.
The year is 2002. Your doctor prescribes OxyContin. Purdue Pharma trained its sales representatives to tell doctors the addiction risk was less than one percent. That figure came from a letter, not a study. The letter was about patients with terminal cancer on short-term doses in hospital settings. Your doctor is a GP with a patient who has a bad back. Nobody draws a distinction. Nobody is required to.
The year is 2008. Your doctor checks your cholesterol. Your LDL is elevated. You are prescribed a statin. Nobody mentions that the number needed to treat for primary prevention is approximately 250. Nobody mentions that the muscle deterioration you'll notice over the next two years is listed as a rare side effect rather than a documented pattern affecting a meaningful percentage of patients. The trial that informed the prescription was funded by the manufacturer.
Now it is today.
Your doctor has new guidelines. New studies. New consensus.
He is confident.
He has always been confident.
The confidence has never been the problem.
The confidence is, in fact, precisely the problem.
@theheraldsun As long as teachers keep pushing the woke gender ideology then I couldn't care less. Focus on teaching kids reading, writing and skills they need in life, not that crap.
