I am really tired, but happy with a job well done. I've seen no news & the only social media was about the rally. I wonder if I missed anything important? 230

Sandra M Aus @igfbss.bsky.social · 14/09/2026I want to see more electric options, more in use. There are some incentives (I think they should be targeted to smaller businesses).

Sandra M Aus @igfbss.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Why do we expect the government (labor) to fix all of private industry. The libs complain about Socialists & Communists forcing change.
