Just been to the book launch of Lisa Wilkinson's book The Titanic Story of Evelyn the only Australian survivor. What a wonderful story Lisa has brought to life. I felt every emotion was rivetting. Loved it could read it again. There are many to admire and some to despise. Can recommend it.

Sussan Ley and Andrew Hastie have no idea how the majority feel. Immigration did not cause the terrorist act at Bondi. In fact the shooter who was killed came in under the LNP. His son was on the watch list under Scommo.

Always rely on Michaela Cash to come through and sink the LNP further into oblivion with her ranting. Now, to state, they will reverse the government's recognition of Palestine as a state just sank them further..just like the election can't read the Australian people.

Paul Murray said interest rate drop was a key to change in voter support for LNP. Also, public servants reduction. What he failed to mention were the similar policies from Dutton to Trump. Public noticed before the term Temu Trump was being thrown around. Also, the attack on Welcome to Country.

Clive Palmer saying Andrew Hastie needs to be leader did so well in election. Big mistake if they go for him. At this rate there won't be enough for a backbench.

Jacinta Price blaming media for smear campaign against Dutton in relation to Trump. No he did it himself. Slogans like "Make Australia great again.""Are you better off than 3 years ago?" Didn't help him. Next time don't get an American campaign manager of a mad US president to help.

Just heard a guy on the radio saying he would vote for LNP because of the crime rate. It's about time journalists corrected this BS. Federal government does not make laws about crimes it's a state responsibility.

Danica on SkyNews says Labor is painting Dutton as temu Trump on purpose. Why? To lose female vote. Is she stupid? They don't need to say anything. Dutton brought it on himself. He is a Trump copycat. Too many of his policies are similar.

Kerrie West @westk59.bsky.social · 28/03/2025
Classic answer from my not interested in politics husband today. Dutton, sacking 41000 public servants, "Does he think he is Trump? Does he have his own policies?"Hopefully, the majority also see the similarities. We don't want Trump copycat for PM.

How about people focus on what's good about the budget? Education, housing, women's health, tax cuts for low income earners apprenticeships, etc. On top of what we already have, such as Medicare clinics, cheaper medicines, tax cut, and cheaper child care. Many find things to whinge about.

Kerrie West @westk59.bsky.social · 25/03/2025
Dutton sounding like Trump more each day..now asking us if we are better off than 3 years ago. Many will say no not realising cost of living increase is worldwide. But inflation unemployment are lower wages are up now Medicare clinics child care cheaper Tafe free and HECs less. I don't want more gas

@pheonixed.bsky.social hey Jon just saw a clip from Jon Stewart show..if all 1% of those billionaires in US paid what they owed on taxes you could end all those living in poverty there. Need 750 billion. Trump isn't going to do that as we know. So it can be done.

Can't believe polls suggest Dutton would win 73 seats.Are people crazy? What do they have to offer? Nuclear energy..so quickly people forget the rorts and cuts to Medicare and lots of debt. Racists should not run a country built on multiculturalism.

No surprise that Andrew Bolt and Rowan Dean agreeing with Trump's idea for Gaza strip..saying Palestinians abused what they are given. Others have been relocated but not 2.5 million. Whole nation. Also suggesting Dutton should be more like Trump. He is already using his playbook.

Dutton is talking about supporting China, our major trade partner. The LNP ruined that relationship. Penny Wong got it back on track. He is such a liar. Does he think people have forgotten? I'm sure the wine industry hasn't.

The artrocities of the Holocaust has been taught in schools since the National Curriculum. Many students at year 10 visit the Holocaust Museum in Melbourne. Hearing the story of survival from a person who lived it. It is a moving experience for them and teachers. Dutton needs to do his research.

Was discussing the possibility of Trump amending the Constitution so he can serve a third term. A Republican member, a big fan, has now suggested it. This will also make Obama eligible lol.
