Watched #insiders for the first time in a long time today.

Sussan Ley will also be meeting with the National's David Littleproud to ask...

The National Party and the Liberal Party are all set to claim Australia has lowered emissions more than the OECD.
Much more, dump #NetZero
This of course is complete bullshit.

Today, when just about everyone in the Liberal Party spoke.
No vote was taken but more MPs spoke against #NetZero than for it.
That's about 28-21...what a mess!

John Howard calls on Sussan Ley to get together with Anthony Albanese and agree to 4 year parliamentary terms.
Problem is this would require a referendum.
Last referendum, the Libs withdrew support and kyboshed the whole thing. #TheVoice.
Can't trust those bastards.

Here's one for the history books.
Liberal Party elected their first female leader,
And then systematically undermined her and knifed her in the back, every chance they got.

Informative piece.
Graph shows housing crisis been brewing since 1947!
Housing growth plummeting but at least ahead of population growth, also falling.
Until 2001, then housing grows slower than the population.
Coalition says there was no problem under them.

"If someone can afford to pay for something..."
Hasn't Sussan Ley just spent the last 5 mths whinging about wealthy losing universal Super concessions?
What about govt funding of private schools?

All political parties have a responsibility to ensure voters aren't harassed by their campaigners at polling stations.
It would be a shame if police were required to enforce this.

Appalling. Record number of indigenous deaths in custody.
Here's some perspective.
In 2023-24, 108 people died in custody in Australia.
24 were Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander...that's 23%!
Only 3.8% of Australians are indigenous.
