When they say “this is not who we are” the Australian media are showing this is exactly who we are

Hanson has done more than any other politician to foster division in Australia. Her words to mourners after the horrific attack ring hollow

He’s just won the largest Labor majority since WW2, destroyed the leaders of two parties and run a government where there have yet been *zero* scandals… so perhaps claims Albo was “weak” were somewhat fanciful?

I have never seen an #auspol leader covered in so much blood that wasn’t theirs.

Will always vote Labor who looks after workers . Good communities look after the most vulnerable and beyond their backyards.
LNP , PHON and Trumpets punish workers.
Teals are pretty wishy washy on Unions and IR
Greens talk a lot , do bugga all and Di Natale couldn’t pay a nanny award rates

This is why Dutton called the ABC “hate media”. It’s because he HATES how they scrutinise him. They’ve exposed his dishonesty over a family trust which bought and sold childcare centres, helping to explain why he’s a multi-millionaire. Dutton can’t be trusted!

“Kindness isn’t weakness. Kindness is something I was raised with. We raise our children to be compassionate with each other.”

It’s fantastic to hear a PM say these words. Especially next to… the alternative. #auspol

This is why I instablock ANYONE who uses the word “duopoly”. They betray themselves as classist garbage. I guess the profound differences between Labor and Liberal don’t matter when you don’t think workers are people. #auspol

So Dutton has done a backflip on working from home. He is completely out of touch with Australian workers . He would slash the Public Service,outsource work to more expensive private contractors and punish the lowest paid Aussie workers in a heat beat .
Don’t trust Dutton .
Don’t risk Dutton .

Peter Dutton is playing the Trump game of not saying too much about his agenda before the election because no sane person would vote for it and Australia is full of sane people, do not vote for this fucking guy, put the Liberals LAST. #auspol

Let's do this Australia, I love Our Country and that is why I am voting Labor in this years 2025 Federal Election.
That is why I will never ever vote for the Liberal National Party who serves themselves and big business and would emulate Trump if elected.

The world is increasingly complex and it is very clear that Peter Dutton does not have the judgment to lead our country through it. No responsible Liberal voter could disagree. Dutton is not Fraser. He’s not Howard. The way he is behaving, he’s not even Tony Abbott. #auspol

In vast areas of the US, the sentiments expressed in this wonderful letter from a British man about why it's a privilege to pay tax to enable the National Health Service to run would see him probably certified as insane and labelled a "socialist".

He is NOT the PM & he’s certainly NOT responsible for coordinating any disaster relief. He has NO power.

www.abc.net.au/news/2025-03... As a CN who spent over 20 yrs working in ERs I am beyond disgusted with the abc . Urgent care clinics help people avoid ER presentations and alleviate ER pressures and ramping . Not to mention those with a sick kid who can’t get into a bulk billing GP.Poor form abc .
Is Labor pork-barrelling with its urgent care clinics?
The health minister says a historical quirk is behind why two-thirds of existing and promised Medicare urgent care clinics are in Labor-held seats, and they are committed based on need.

I've challenged Angus Taylor to at least 3 economic debates.

He's had 3 years and still no costed, credible or coherent policies – just lower wages, longer lunches, and secret cuts to pay for nuclear.

If he wants to be taken seriously, he should accept this challenge today.

The abc has run a dirt campaign on Albanese since before the last election . Began with the gaffe, the bond , a Qantas upgrade and then the house he bought with his partner . A house valued at about the same as the one owned by Annabel Crabb and her lawyer partner who also works at the abc.

“Promising to reduce the size of the public service is a cheap political stunt.”

New research shows that sacking public servants actually costs the country a fortune, as public jobs are replaced by consultants, contractors and labour hire workers.

New research from @futurework.org.au #auspol
Cutting the public service saves nothing
Reducing the size of Australia’s public service is often characterised as a way to save the country money and make government departments more efficient.
