As opposed to artificially forcing up property values through tax changes (which is exactly what #JohnHoward did). This is just righting that original wrong. #auspol@SkyNewsAust

✅ $177 billion of Coalition debt paid down
✅ National Anti-Corruption Commission established
✅ Cheaper medicines
✅ Cheaper childcare
✅ Free TAFE made permanent
✅ Paid domestic violence leave introduced
✅ Student debt reduced
✅ Bulk billing tripled
✅ Wage theft criminalised
✅ Super on paid parental leave
✅ Help to Buy for first-home buyers
✅ Future Made in Australia manufacturing investment
✅ 43% emissions reduction target legislated
You don’t have to agree with every policy, but the claim that Labor has “done nothing” simply doesn’t survive contact with reality.
They made promises. They delivered on them.

Albo says it’s “completely extraordinary” One Nation claims to stand for Australia while they “offshore their own advertising” & “offshore their party membership process.” 💥
Will anyone ask Hanson about the hypocrisy at NPC today?

@Ryandally08 Honestly Karl, you of all people accusing someone of lying when you lied, cheated and didn't give two rats about your 1st wife & kids. I don't think you pass the pub test on too much these days!
My kid's GP was charging a gap fee of $75 until this government fixed bulk billing.
I distrust all politicians because they speak in endless hyperbolic tones, just like people who say everything has gotten worse.
Anyway, bulk billed on the weekend. Happy with that.
