No democracy sausages at our local school polling booth. Is it’s time over?

@instanterudite.bsky.social Jo love your show. But I have to ask, where did you your Australian Government Department of (can’t read the rest) t-shirt?

Congratulations to you and Dave and your team for such a great corrective to MSM.

As I see it, this Australian election is a choice between money in your pocket versus saving the planet. Guess whose winning?

I’m a librarian not psychic.

How does Clive Palmer do it? He declared bankruptcy. He should be flat broke. Not funding new political parties.

It’s been a real pick-mix of a morning, work wise.

The Coalition wants to cut the public service. Last time they did we got Robodebt, cuts to veterans services, public housing et al. Hiring consultants to do the jobs of public servants at a much higher cost. Don’t believe the bastards.

It has just occurred to me: what would Diane Wynne Jones make of the Gaiman scandel?

I think I can detect whirring from her gravesite.

Follow the money. Who benefits? The people who own the companies that have the consultants.
Just re-upping this again because the Temu Trumps in the LNP insist on bringing every culture war here: the Morrison govt spent $20.8bn on consultants in its final year - the equivalent of 54,000 FT public servants. The private sector benefits with govt cuts. No one else.

It's been brought to my attention that if we'll all repost the cartoon with her article's name and substack info below it, Ann Tienaes can better benefit with more clicks.

Sigh I might as well resign*

I’m not allowed to pay for any resources for the Library because the Hospital is over-budget. Again. Like it is every year. So I can’t do my job effectively.

*I would if we didn’t have rent to pay.

New neighbour* was inspecting the cul-de-sac when I came home tonight.

*Australin bush or scrub turkey. A young one, I think.
