The world is watching aghast as the USA progresses down its slippery slope towards a new order that includes book-banning.
We must ensure Australia doesn’t go further down that appalling path now that Big W has taken the first submissive steps in capitulation.

The reported abuse of Big W staff who are merely doing their job is indicative of a society in danger of losing its civility.
Surely we are better than this.

Labor increases primary vote to 41% nationwide, up from 40% in the three months to December.
The findings reveal a primary vote strong enough to cement Labor in power, with gains in more than a dozen seats if the vote was replicated at the next election.

Grattan Institute in its Preventing Pork Barrelling report last year:
“Of 19,000 grants allocated by the former federal Coalition government under 11 grant programs between 2017 and 2021, $1.9 billion went to Coalition seats but only $530 million to Labor seats.”

Then PM Morrison:
"This is a great opportunity, if Gladys wishes to run for fed parliament”
This is precisely the problem. Australia’s leaders rorting the country, misusing public monies, abusing public trust, seemed to think the system was working just fine.

When Gladys was accused of pork-barrelling she said it was fine "all govts did it"
After she’d resigned as premier under the cloud of ICAC, Morrison urged her to run for fed parliament.
Too damaged to remain premier but perfectly qualified to join the Morrison govt.

"We basically had to go fishing every day to feed ourselves”
Broke & hungry, Pacific Islanders abandoning farms in droves.
Fruit pickers in a NSW town pay $175 a week to bunk in shipping containers that the workplace safety watchdog slapped with 14 improvement notices.#SMHerald
Former Indigenous journalist at the ABC:
“They [the ABC] wanted to use my face and my skin [for their benefit], but they didn’t want to give me the same opportunities as my white colleagues.”

Dutton has already commenced the process of blatantly blaming Labor for his own administrations former fiscal failures...
and the media cheers on!

Watching some TV and luminaries (not) like Alison Landon making comments about the brilliant but difficult Labor budget.
Honestly she and many others are so used to the last 9 years of ‘sugar hits’ that they cannot see a serious attempt at budget repair.

Jim Chalmers:
“This isn’t just the end of a wasted decade, it’s the beginning of something new.”
Music to my ears.

We have a treasurer who believes that a society’s “well-being” is an important economic indicator. This new govt. is such a breath of fresh air after a decade of rorts, waste and inequity.
So glad Frydenberg is gone.

Medibank hack is yet again another example of how Engineering and Computer Science is treated with utter contempt in Australian Institutions.
Marketing is grossly overrated in this country - Engineering and Science builds and protects nations.
Grow up!

Everyone should read Scott Morrison's ‘profile’ as part of the world speakers group!
Talk about false advertising.

NDIS rorts, now Medicare rorts.
The new Labor govt have a huge job ahead cleaning up after the last decade of LNP govt incompetence, neglect and waste.
Why were no measures put in place by successive LNP govts to prevent this rorting from happening?
#SMHerald #InsidersABC
Drought Envoy and serious rorter, Barnaby Joyce, expects the new government to fix the last decade of LNP rorts, waste, incompetence and neglect in their first six months. Hilarious.
Sit down Barnyard, the new govt is still uncovering the extent of your damage.
