@Keir_Starmer Definitely know how to read the room. 😂

@PatsyDiabetes This is a whole new level of Ratioed. The Internet may forgive but it never forgets.

@7NewsMelbourne @paul_dowsley Can’t come soon enough - $1000,000 an hour in interest payments - unsustainable.

@JacintaAllanMP It’s a violent shithole. Well done.

@JEChalmers Prevention is better than cure? This has been a known potential issue for many decades.

Question is - What exactly is the plan moving forward, that would be a twofa

1. A great Policy idea that would be welcomed by voters
2. Something this is actually tangible to the voters.

@realRick_AUS It’s all across the western world. Google any western country and see how they’re travelling it’s a managed decline- we know who and we know why and it has nothing to do with our Governments at any level - they are merely the facilitators.

@TruthFairy131 @VDejan0000 Make yourself at home. (Hits different)

@ClareONeilMP Yawn.🥱

[Matthew Weste @wifiot]

@Keir_Starmer Probably a little more concerned with the PRG’s by the looks of things.

@FmrRepMTG Irwin Schiff said the same thing - @PeterSchiff

@elonmusk You said make Orwell fiction again.

@ComicDaveSmith NJF was the OG.

@Bannons_WarRoom It’s over.

@JacintaAllanMP What a metric to be proud of. The opposite would be a better one. Not needing one as big would be more complimentary.

They didn’t just have “discipline” — they had a completely different economic reality.

In 1983:
•Median house ≈ $118k
•Average full-time wage ≈ $20k
→ House = ~6× income

Today:
•Same house ≈ $3.2M
•Average full-time wage ≈ $90k
→ House = ~35× income

That’s the difference.

Wages have gone up ~4–5×.
Housing has gone up ~25–30×.

The “discipline” gap didn’t change — the price-to-income ratio did.

Young people aren’t locked out because they buy coffee.
They’re locked out because the goalposts moved 5–6x further away.
