@pritamghosh60@taipan168 Haven’t got access to article but the skilled migration program is not meeting our needs, which perpetuates a cycle of needing skilled migration for a larger population and around we go. Whether it’s because of government or migrants (both?) it’s something that needs fixing.
This is an absolute fucking disaster - Australia is demolishing its second last domestic fertiliser plant to build homes for new migrants.
Destroying what remains of our industrial base to sell citizenship to overseas migrants. This is the Australian economic model and it’s a catastrophe
@sphericaltime@Whirlwind877@theserfstv J K Rowling was correct. It’s a man punching women who was incorrectly awarded a medal for in the female category.
@JeremiahDJohns 2/ it could be argued that for both music and video games they’re just rehashing old ideas or reusing true and tried formulas and this is why people are listening/playing older music and video games.
@JeremiahDJohns I would argue that in an objective sense older music is better, and this is from someone who listens to possibly 100s of new albums per year , but I don’t think old video games are objectively better. I don’t think there is anything objective about either of our opinions. 1/
@taipan168 We need to deport the criminals when they’re not citizens and remove them from our country. I’m losing a lot of faith in an immigration system that refuses to use common sense and do this and it’s one of the reason for the rise of ON. The courts and tribunals are a joke.
@duncanmccon101@LeeroySmith68@AshfordAu@Lisa9Sophia You’re just going around in circles now. Renewables without subsidies would not exist to the same level as they are now. What are you not understanding? You don’t think renewable companies receive government grants and subsidies? What’s the lefts obsession with Gina? Bye.
@duncanmccon101@LeeroySmith68@AshfordAu@Lisa9Sophia And coal operated 100% for many years.
Whether we move on beyond coal, is another discussion, but the point is that without subsidies the renewables industry would be failing to provide 30%. It only does so with subsidies.
@DrewPavlou The requirement stems from the 2025 Statewide Treaty Act establishing Gellung Warl, an elected advisory body for First Peoples that provides input on policies affecting them but lacks formal veto power over parliament.
I don’t agree with the treaty but it’s not a veto.
@duncanmccon101@LeeroySmith68@AshfordAu@Lisa9Sophia And we also subsidise the renewables industry (so we can go around in circles here) so what is your point.
Until your preferred renewables are not subsidised you can’t complain about fossil fuels being subsidised. National security, which includes fuel comes before ideology.
@VoteLewko@Kurt56289658 30 years ago nothing was even open on Good Friday; and for me that’s a better option than abolishing penalty rates on such important cultural holidays such as Christmas and Easter.
@VoteLewko I’m not even religious but I have no issue with penalty rates at Easter and Christmas, for both reason of our Christian/Euro tradition remaining intact, and for having to work on a day most don’t. If you don’t like paying more on that day, don’t buy.
@duncanmccon101@LeeroySmith68@AshfordAu@Lisa9Sophia If the government stopped funding the renewable industry in Australia that would end too, so your point is?
A sensible country cannot put all its eggs into one energy basket, and our government failed to secure long term fuel reserves.
@swandane Nah, I’m not religious but there are 51 other Thursdays in a year you can party after midnight. Not all traditions should die, if this one does maybe a change to the Collingwood guernsey is long overdue too!
