RBA news awful for the millions in mortgage stress. It's punishment for homeowners & profit for the banks already making $$$ on home loans. Tax the 1%, not hard working people. Rates hikes won’t fix the housing crisis but a government that treats housing as a human right will.

Labor backbenchers have been out in force the past few days spruiking "increases" in Centrelink payments. To be very, very clear: this is absolute bullshit. This is an automatic CPI adjustment, not an increase. Labor is still keeping people on income support in poverty.

Deidre's husband waited months for a special chair he desperately needed. It arrived two weeks after he died. Labor's aged care reforms are a disaster: blowing out waitlists, denying care and forcing people off supports. Growing old should be a joy, not a struggle for survival.

We don’t have time for this. About 250 Australians die every year from heatwaves. That number is projected to sky-rocket to 6000 by 2100. The major parties are choosing their fossil fuel donors over people’s lives. A green transition means a liveable future for all of us.

Why does it always seem to be beautiful Qld that gets the raw deal? We're sleepwalking into an AI catastrophe. Without proper regulation, a data centre of this scale will have devastating impacts on energy, water use, people and the environment.

For almost a year now we’ve listened to the Aged Care minister defend the broken home support assessment system. Now we learn he wasn't briefed on the tool depriving clinicians of oversight until three days before the changes took effect.

Queensland’s LNP government has signed away our power and data to a trillion-dollar company. The site in Western Downs will use the same amount of energy as 1.5 million households. That’s 44x the population there! The community didn't ask for this. Moratorium now.

Woolies and Coles made a combined $2.2 billion in profits last year, while 53% of Australians reported finding it harder to put food on the table. If Aussies are struggling to put food on the table, Coles and Woolies shouldn’t be posting massive profits.

Labor has approved yet another coal project, extending it to 2055. Fossil fuels are incompatible with a liveable future. Far North Qld will be most at risk of sea level rises and heat-related deaths. We need a government that works for everyday people, not corporations.

Screenshot of The Guardian's article. Headline reads "Australia's new environmental protection agency approves coal project, angering climate groups". Byline reads "Queensland open-cut Saraji mine will be able to keep digging until 2055 as Anthony Albanese denies tensions with Pacific leaders over fossil fuels".

Under the NDIS people with MND are able to access around $300k a year for their complex needs. It’s often not enough. But if you’re diagnosed with MND over 65, the most you can get in an aged care package is $78k. It's utterly absurd.
