SIXTEEN BILLION DOLLARS in subsidies to the mining industry ... If we're not utterly enraged by this, if we're not joining with Senator Pocock & others to demand this government taxes those miners - not even, 'properly', just f*cking FAIRLY - we're not doing our job 'properly' as the electorate.
thepoint.com.au
If the NDIS is ‘runaway spending’, what do we call $16 billion in fossil fuel subsidies?
New research shows fossil fuel subsidies will reach $16.3 billion in 2025–26, rising faster than the NDIS. Handouts to mining giants are growing faster than support for Australians with disability.

Solidarity with 'Elise'; shame on those in Balmoral, Victoria who betrayed her. The town notorious for siding with convicted rapists against a survivor. Every young woman & little girl there now knows if she is attacked, she'll be the one vilified. I hope the girls all get away as fast as they can.
