@NewRulesGeo It sounds impressive. But if it is so cutting edge, why I Russia losing the war with Ukraine?

[Paul @sharks37]

@David_McMahon75 It would make more sense to tax someone based on their total income (wages + investment returns).

[Paul @sharks37]

@Handre You don’t understand finance do you.

[Paul @sharks37]

@CuriosityonX America, Israel, and Russia.

[Paul @sharks37]

@thisisnew_me1 Whether it’s based on the property value or something else, if council costs o up due to inflation, then rates have to go up. Otherwise you get less services.

[Paul @sharks37]

I agree. It doesn’t make One Nation a good choice. It’s a bad choice. But if voting for them forces the ruling political class to change, then a necessary one.

I fear a tsunami is coming and it will sweep away the Labor government and possibly remove the Greens from balance of power position and many on the left will scratch their heads and say “why”? That’s an awful the lack of self-awareness. It is not limited to the Greens; Labor and the Libs are also prone to the same blindness. The tsunami is the resentment and alienation felt by so many, especially the working class. It is not fascism. Many people, especially those in outer suburbs and regional areas are suffering financial hardship, lack of services and bureaucratic authoritarianism. They could probably put up with all this but, on top of that, they perceive that an elite - the professional/managerial class - has all the economic and political clout that they lack and a woke culture they despise. There are probably other aspects to this uprising I haven’t mentioned and that a political sociologist should investigate but those factors I have mentioned, on their own, go a long way to explaining why One Nation, on 31% is the most popular party in the country. Dissatisfied Australians are flocking out of the major parties to One Nation, not the Greens. Why is that? It is not Gina Reinhardt and Murdoch. One Nation has been the repository of every major resentment in the country and I fear their rise hasn’t finished yet. After this is all over the left of politics is going to have to do some serious reflection.

@MOSSADil Funny how if the deal collapses, it’s Iran’s fault. It takes 2 parties to agree and if neither compromises it’s both their fault.

[Paul @sharks37]

@isaacrrr7 So what you’re saying is America hasn’t fired a single bullet, missile or attack drone in the last 2 months. Iran did all this completely unprovoked.

You’re an absolute bullshit artist.

[Paul @sharks37]

@MichaelARothman But I thought Iran’s air force was already destroyed. The US and Israel keep destroying the same air force. It’s amazing.

[Paul @sharks37]

@realMaalouf “Unprovoked”? You’re delusional.

[Paul @sharks37]

@Erin_Molan I haven’t forgotten. It was America.

[Paul @sharks37]

@DawnsMission He’s cheating but what really important to you is that she asks him about it.

That says a lot about you.

[Paul @sharks37]

@SkyNewsAust Have you ever seen the lineup of Comcars at the side entrance of Parliament House? There are dozens of them. It’s not just Annie’s that’s milking the public purse, it’s all of them, both sides.

[Paul @sharks37]

@FreedomAus80100 And what are Tim Wilson’s financial qualifications and experience?

[Paul @sharks37]

@isaacrrr7 Is that the same UN that the US and Israel completely disregard and in fact hold in contempt?

I guess you mean the same UN that have said Israel’s genocide in Gaza is a war crime.

So on that basis what’s your point.

[Paul @sharks37]

@omgsidewalks Are you living in 1850’s Australia?

[Paul @sharks37]

@craigkellyAFEE Cafes have already been charging surcharges for public holidays. This will stop nothing, people will still have coffee.

[Paul @sharks37]

@sirDukeDevin Yeah on this basis I think cats win.

[Paul @sharks37]

The answer is Yes. But we can’t expect the ruling parties to address this. It requires more independents, and that means voters have to make smarter choices.

[Senator Gerard Rennick @S_GerardRennick]

Corruption Anger Is Boiling Over Worldwide

A Philippine lawmaker filed House Bill 11211 proposing death by firing squad for public officials convicted of graft, malversation of public funds and plunder, but it has not become law.

[Paul @sharks37]

Albo. Transparent is not his strong suit. I hope we don’t end up hearing he’s got secret ministries like his predecessor.

[Rex Patrick @MrRexPatrick]

The Govt was ordered to disclose politically sensitive #AUKUS nuclear waste site info, but @AlboMP’s has instead launched a nuclear strike on transparency with significant #FOI fallout. @DavidShoebridge has called it an “ugly precedent in secrecy”. #auspol https://t.co/uIzLBhzRbz
