Insurers will quit & there is not enough Govt revenue to pay for insuring the huge private losses that are coming. There is no remedy.

Alan Kohler: "The Coalition's plan is to give the $12,000 to the employers which, they claim, will result in 400,000 extra apprenticeships, a number that just seems to have been made up because it certainly doesn't bear any connection with reality." #auspol #AusVotes

PM Albanese will inject a further $1 billion for mental health into Labor’s re-election campaign. New funding will be directed into Medicare mental health centres, headspace clinics & youth specialist care centres, which will offer Australians free access to psychologists or psychiatrists. #auspol

Albanese raises stakes on mental health with $1b pledge
The PM’s move will give him a rebuttal to Peter Dutton’s $900 million mental health funding ahead of a leaders’ debate.

One party stands alone pretending we don’t have a gas shortage. Come on ALP - let’s get on with taxing our gas properly and stop being afraid of the gas companies
Advert showing that Dutton, Littleproud, Bandt, Hanson, Lambie, Pocock and the Aus Inst all agree we don’t have a gas shortage - only Albanese is absent.

Senator Jacquie Lambie did not hold back in her analysis of salmon faming in Tasmania: "We're not making those multinationals pay for their crimes, and the dirt and filth they have left in that harbor."

I made myself available for a debate with Angus Taylor this Monday on #qanda in his home state. I’ve just been told he has declined. Why is the Shadow Treasurer running from a debate about #budget25 and the economy? #auspol #ausecon

I’ve tried Libre & others. Complete Word & Outlook compatibility is not really available with any other suite. Better to buy a cheap 10yr old desktop version of Office on-line, and never have to pay MS again.

Expect resistance. Too many super funds now deeply invested in the US Stockmarket. We’d need to choose targets that compete directly with Australian products, e.g. US wine, so makers gain a price advantage. But consumers always pay more under tariffs.

NSW Nationals leader Dugald Saunders used a taxpayer-funded car to ferry him around during a weekend away in the Hunter Valley with his wife in which he visited wineries and received gifts of alcohol. A 932km, two-day trip. #auspol

NSW Nationals leader jetted to the wineries. He took ministerial car too
Documents released via freedom of information show then-agriculture minister Dugald Saunders took a ministerial vehicle with him on a controversial Hunter Valley trip.

Big Gas is taking the piss. Help us spread the word, and share this. 👇 90% of WA’s gas is exported. Big Gas takes 73% the gas for free. To add insult to injury, these gas exporters have never paid resources tax. Add your name to make them pay their fair share: theaus.in/collect_gas_... #auspol

#PeterDutton wants to do to #Australia what #Trump is doing to #America. Same scapegoats, same outcomes. The #LNP NEVER respect the Law when in office. The #ALP ain’t perfect. But at least they govern ALL #Australians, not just rich straight white #Faux #Christians. #auspol

There's more money than AUKUS disappearing into multinational tax havens every day. Just tell Trump you're going to tax all gas exports per US companies at the same rate as Norway.

Mr Dutton & Coalition don't value the work done by public servants in CBR & around 🇦🇺 Cutting 36k public servants would be bad for veterans, aged care recipients, ppl on NDIS & everyone else benefiting from valuable govt services. Outsourcing the public service is not cheaper.
