Seems a federal Labor government is OK with that now. I mean gosh, you wouldn't want to rock the boat any time before Albo's next election.

Does media give Hanson too much attention? Short answer, yes. Click bait to sell copy by enflaming controversy. Very few editors ask themselves whether the latest PHON stunt is worthy of promulgation. Or whether it is in the national interest to fan outrage and eclipse policy.

Record profits being made in fossil fuel expors even as the world is burning, rivers drying up, Europeans dropping dead by the thousand from heat exhaustion, and the Pacific heating beyond all records. So what soothing slogans is Albo getting ready for us this coming summer?

So how many millions did we pay some consultancy firm to come up with this trite sloganering? It wouldn't have taken 10 seconds for AI to churn out this corporate babble. Easy money for some multinational or other.

NACC is doing exactly what Albanese and Dutton designed it to do. Nothing. That's why AgedCareBot is now able to comfortably replace Robodebt knowing no one will be prosecuted no matter how many die prematurely, desperately waiting for accurate and timely home care.

I'd much rather Albanese put his energy into fixing the cruel mess he has made of aged care.

Joyce understands the consequences of what he is advocating. If enacted, it would destroy the lives of hundreds of thousands of Australians. He is knowingly making himself culpable. Why? For some remote personal advantage.

Presumably Pauline also believes that those who blew their nest egg will not be able to just to fall back on a full aged pension. Surely there would be a pension penalty equal to the amount of super squandered prior to retirement.

We (the hundreds of millions that inhabit the planet) didn't chose to. A few hundred thousand individuals running corporations, media and governments chose for the rest of the planet, and they remain intransigent to all appeals to dramatically change course.

Come on Guardian, you are sounding like the ABC's 'he-said, she-said balance' BS. Is open cut coal mining for decades to come a good idea or not? Or is merely some whining 'activists' complaining? Don't you have an editorial policy on climate change?

Diarrhea in the lettuce, glass in the popsicles, E. Coli in the berries, screw worms in the beef, salmonella in the chicken & eggs, listeria in everything else. Man I love deregulation. Libertarianism is such a great philosophy.

Albanese calculates there will be little consequence to his sellout of Australian battlers, elderly and disabled so he can avoid damaging PR from the big end of town. Lets prove him wrong.

Depends. If the company was intent on shutting down an industrial capability vital to Australian sovereignty because the numbers didn't stack up for their investors, then yes, if we want Australia to be able to survive trade embargoes and sea lane closures during conflicts.

When Albanese came to power there was not a single sanction against those who oversaw the creation and running of Robodebt. Now we know why. So there would be no future LNP comeback on Labor pollies involved with the creation and management of Agedcarebot. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-08...
