Australia is BELOW the OECD average for taxation.

Murdoch and Reinhardt want Trump style tax cuts for the rich in Australia.

One Nation supporters keep claiming Australia is “going backwards”, but the data tells a different story.

🇦🇺 Australia ranks 3rd in the world for Quality of Life.
🇦🇺 We consistently rank among the world’s top countries on the UN Human Development Index.
🇦🇺 We’re regularly in the global top 10 for happiness.

No country is perfect, and there are real challenges with housing and cost of living, but pretending Australia is some dystopian failure just isn’t supported by the facts.

Australia can always do better. But compared to the rest of the world, we’re still one of the best places on Earth to live.

[Craig Emerson @DrCraigEmerson]

I just checked it out. There are 27 higher taxing countries than Australia (all of them rich countries). John Symon’s claim that Australia is the highest taxing country in the world is utter rubbish.

Good news for working families. Bad news for the Liberals and One Nation.

Labor backed an increase the minimum wage while the Liberals and One Nation opposed it.

ONLY Labor has a plan to help working Australians earn more.

Remember Tony Abbott, the ex-PM who didn’t see out that single term as a PM? The same Abbott who presided over a budget that introduced severe cuts to healthcare and education. Who cemented his ridiculousness by awarding a knighthood to a prince. The onion-eating, budgie-smuggling, licky lipped smirker whose misogyny was only surpassed by a predilection for sleeze? The Abbott who supported a pedo priest and was led around Parliament House by the nose by a petty cretin whose questionable conduct enraged and undermined not only many parliamentary staff, but his ministers and anybody who upset his harridan’s status quo?…

The same ex-PM who sat on the back benches seething for months continuing to undermine the PM’ship of his successor until he lost his seat of Warringah to Zali Steggall in 2019.

He never got over it, you know. The indignity of losing his power, his position, his political aspiration and his ability to manipulate and control the narrative of an entire country.

So he’s been working on taking it back for years. Like a dog with a rancid bone - he’s worked those right-wing circles like a hard-right republican on a mission. He’s manipulated the Liberal party for years - aided and abetted by RW media throughout his stint in the UK as an “unpaid” trade advisor and member of the UK Board of Trade in 2020 appointed by his good friend, Boris Johnson.

Abbott continued his relationship with Murdoch media when he was elected as a director of Fox Corporation in 2023. He was personally nominated to the board by Lachlan Murdoch.

.. and on the board he remains.. even as he has been elected as the Liberal Party president - unopposed - in May 2026.

Like a charred phoenix rising from the malodorous ashes - Tony Abbott sees himself as the second coming for the Liberal party, the egocentric messiah of malignancy to the rescue of a maligned and fast disintegrating party that have ironically been the victim of their right-wing Sky News echo chamber, the same echo chamber that their new illustrious leader has been representing as Director of Fox for a good proportion of their capitulation into the chasm of chaos.

For Abbott to remain a director of Fox Corporation AND be president of the Liberal Party should create a conflict of interest. It should be raising eyebrows and ringing alarm bells in every news source in the country.

The fact that it is NOT - and it is business as usual for not only the Liberals, News Corp and their various sycophants - is an indication of the real undermining of truthful journalism and trustworthy news sources in this country.

When is it time to admit that the majority of media resources in this country and their so-called journalism is nothing more than a propagandic outlet for right-wing views and right-wing control of the narrative?

Right-wing politics and the media ARE intertwined. They are interchangeable. The bipartisan media is in its entirety a right-wing megaphone - that is geared towards drowning out the truth, the facts, the science and the data to the point where the loudest voice in the room and the most influential and manipulative opinion IS the right-wing opinion.

Chew on that fact, fckrs.

@S_GerardRennick This Pauline Hanson?

[One News Australia @OnenewsAus]

🚨Pauline Hanson says minimum wage workers should not receive a pay rise

Speaking on Sky News, Pauline Hanson argued that Australia’s lowest-paid workers should not receive a wage increase, claiming rising electricity prices and business costs are placing pressure on employers. The comments come ahead of the Fair Work Commission’s annual minimum wage decision, which affects around 3 million workers.

📊 ONE NEWS AUSTRALIA ANALYSIS

From an economic perspective, many economists would challenge Hanson’s argument.

While businesses face higher costs, wage growth that consistently remains below inflation reduces workers’ purchasing power. When low-income workers have less money to spend, consumer demand can weaken, which can also hurt small businesses.

Research generally finds that moderate increases in minimum wages do not necessarily cause large job losses, particularly in periods where labour markets remain relatively tight. Supporters of wage increases argue that workers should not experience declining living standards while the economy continues to grow.

Critics of Hanson’s position also note that minimum wage earners are among the Australians most affected by housing, grocery and energy costs, making real wage growth important for maintaining living standards.

🗣️ ONE NEWS AUSTRALIA VIEW

At One News Australia, we believe any discussion about wages should balance the needs of workers and businesses. However, asking Australia’s lowest-paid workers to absorb rising living costs while their wages fall behind inflation risks placing the burden of economic adjustment on those least able to afford it. #auspol
