The Coalition has a habit of inheriting a good economy and managing it poorly; and handing the ALP a shit show to fix in return.
Next time Dutton or his mates talk about getting Australia’s Inflation under control - show them this👇
Inflation was INCREASING under LNP & is DECREASING under Labor.

Franklin Graham is a shameful and heterodoxical embarrassment & reproach to his father’s legacy.

Not that I’m an avid cricket watcher, but this Boxing Day Test is the first time in a VERY long time that I’ve watched someone actually win a match. So it’s been a nice few days relaxing and enjoying the game.

All the little pearl-clutchers getting anxious about the shoulder bump and trash talk between Sam Konstas and Virat Kohli. Ha!
They obviously never saw the 1981 WACA game when Dennis Lillee and Javed Miandad had their altercation on the pitch!

It’s been about 40 years, or so, since I watched the start of the Boxing Day Test Match. I don’t ever recall so much pomp and ceremony - anthems etc. It was a coin flip, Tony stuck his key in the pitch and babbled about weather and player comfort then the game commenced. #AusvInd

I’m noticing the “Twitter/X” habit of people following in order to get a follow back trend … I just unfollowed several teachers, educators, Queenslanders, Australians who did this.

Greens’ Senator Sarah Hanson-Young attacks the government’s soon-to-be legislated ban on social media for under16s as “fool’s gold.” She says it is “for politics not for substance…the kids will find a way to work around it.” #insiders

One thing I look for in a social network is not to have the CEO shove his reactionary political views in my face every time I open the app. So I’m happy here.
