They’re using AI to justify slashing and offshoring even more Australian jobs and the Government is standing by and watching it happen. Ask yourself who profits from this? We need a system that delivers for the 99% who need jobs not the 1% who live off profits.

Australia: 83,000 cases of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) recorded so far this year. 🔹890 confirmed RSV cases daily since winter started 🔹51,000+ COVID-19 cases officially recorded 🔹50,000 people struck down with influenza Source: www.news.com.au/lifestyle/he...
An article screenshot from news.com.au titled "Health officials issue urgent vaccine call as RSV cases grip Australia."
The subtitle states that a common cold-like virus has outpaced Covid-19 and influenza this winter, with Australia on track to record more than 120,000 cases. The article is written by Jackson Barnes and dated July 15, 2026.
Below the text is a microscope image showing a close-up, cross-sectional view of cellular tissue. The tissue sample is heavily stained in bright pink and deep purple colours, displaying dense clusters of microscopic oval and circular cells with prominent dark nuclei. A caption below the image reads: "More than 83,000 cases of RSV have been recorded across the country this year. Picture: Supplied".
