The best education systems in the world are 100% public. When every kid goes to public school all parents, including the rich ones, want the public schools to be good. Oh, and its great for social cohesion.

But in Australia, we talk about being evidence based but ignore the evidence all the time

No, Ronni, you’re wrong. It’s MULTI-millionaire Peter Dutton.

Wondering what Millionaire Peter Dutton up to today?

I've just been perusing Peter Dutton's speeches & media releases over the past two years and he loves to take a dig at "wealthy elites"

I am here to beg you - every one of you - to always, always refer to him as Millionaire Peter Dutton from now

It was 'a safe space for Dutton to make his pitch... This didn’t stop Dutton from having to mop nervous perspiration from his dome during the event – a telling moment for the self-styled Queensland tough guy.'

Let's start the new year off with some cold, hard truths:
- Donald trump is a convicted felon.
- He did NOT win by a landslide.
- It was the 5th smallest win EVER.
- None of his decisions are his own: he is owned and controlled by President Musk and Putin.

PASS IT ON.

The Australian Pharmacy Guild predicted with crocodile tears that 665 pharmacies would close after gvt allowed us to get 60 day prescriptions from Sep 23. What happened? 22 closed & 165 applications for new pharmacies, 87 approved. Guild credibility shredded www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...

Reminder: Voting is not a binary choice

The Australian ppl determine the makeup of our parliament

If you're not happy with the majors, don't vote for them - vote for the best person for the job

Australians can create the change they want by voting differently

Ranked 10th on our 2024 Shitstirrers Index is @sammyjcomedian.bsky.social, who ran a cheeky, pointed campaign against Kyle & Jackie O all while staying within the limits of ABC's "fun-draining editorial guidelines".

Our secondary school has been saving for 15 years for air con for a small theatre.

At Haileybury to attend a swim meet we note they have a pool, a warmup pool, 12 tennis courts, multiple ovals, magnificent new buildings with state of the art everything.

My taxes help with this inbalance.

I now have 10,000 followers here but over 5.9 million at the other place. If you want Me to switch for good I need you to get the word out that I'm here, pathetically desperate for worship (just like in real life), and filled with even more contempt for you here than I was there.
