Who else agrees with China? China hasn't dropped a bomb for 40 years whereas the US has dropped a bomb on average every 40 mins for the past 40 years.

The problem isn’t government waste. The problem is that billionaires don’t pay taxes.

Of the 35 advanced countries in the OECD who reported last year’s exports to the World Bank, only three increased exports relative to gross domestic product over 2022. Of these, Australia’s expansion was the strongest

Why do most Australian media outlets never report this!
Australia sets impressive trade records which newsrooms refuse to report
Recent World Bank data provides another endorsement of Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s economy.

Pay rises are the highest they hve been in 15 yrs.

Record number of secure jobs

Gender pay gap is lowest it has been in years.

Yet according to business & the coalition this is bad for business.

No, it’s not. Productivity is high. Workers also put more money into economy.

Don’t believe the lies

In the lead up to next year’s election, the workers of Australia should remember that Dutton’s Coalition economic plan is to keep you underpaid and under the thumb. Dutton is not your friend.

If #socialmedia is dangerous to children and requires a legislated ban, surely we have to do the same for religion, for exactly the same reason. #auspol

Israel is allying to ISIS affiliated criminal gangs to starve Gaza.

You can read about this in the Israeli press.

Why isn't this splashed on front pages in the West?

Israel allying with ISIS affiliated militants to starve Gaza
Israel's publicly declared policy of starving Gaza has many elements. One of them is allowing criminal gangs to run rampage - including ISIS.

In case you’re watching parliament and listening to LNP members tell you how much the LNP deeply cares about #housing. Note they didn’t care enough to have a Housing Ministry for most of those interminable years they were in govt. #auspol

Chrisafulli is a Christian, isn’t he? Very worried about the rights of the unborn, as I recall. Pity, like so many of his brethren, he has so little compassion for children once they are born.

Interesting that the ABC rolled over and settled with Lehrmann and parroted the words for ages (and then he lost his case).
In contrast ABC chose to fight Lattouf (who had a strong case and won).
Williams yet another bad choice for ABC chair.

This link from The Chaser gives us over 124 reasons why the coalition and Herr Duttonator should NEVER be voted into govt. ever.

It’s a good read. All with links… and likely only the tip of the iceberg for these scurrilous dung dwellers.
