So sick of these greedy corps gaming the system.

Despite the spin, the Coalition and News Corp remain mouthpieces for billionaire interests bent on stalling climate action and truth alike.

The choice for the Liberals is simple … risk shedding some votes to right wing rural folk or risk losing even more votes to centrist inner-city dwellers. Today may be the day they vote themselves out of any future relevance. #StuckInOpposition #auspol

One is pretty convinced that three women called Pat, Lorraine and Margaret with an urn & a swear jar could have done a helluva lot better than this.
Sidenote: Did you know that the NACC employs over 200 people, spends over $50m per year, has 5 offices, and in over two years of operations hasn't landed a single major corruption finding?

RW lackeys will b losing their minds. None of their efforts to polish that Vic Lib shyte show has made any difference to a jaded electorate -likely sick of the Deeming-Pesutto Days of our Live’s saga of spite, hubris & blackmail for bloviators.

The problem with handing out government awards to politicians is that they didn’t do ‘service’ for the community. They got paid well to provide services to their Party, the Party’s donors and their ego.
