Do you think this many months into WWII, the ABC would have kept unquestioningly quoting the Nazi's lies and justifications for why they're slaughtering innocent people?

As the ACCC supermarket inquiry revealed that our supermarkets have some of the highest profits in the world, supermarket stock prices have rallied today, by 4-6%.
Investors know the ACCC can’t hurt Coles & Woolies.
It’s time for more powers to control price gouging & a prices commission.

By cutting fossil fuel subsidies, ending the gas industry’s free ride, reforming negative gearing and closing tax loopholes for superannuation and luxury utes, Treasury would raise between $12 billion and $63 billion.

Peter Dutton’s line that having a strong public sector is about “pleasing the unions” is just wrong. It is about providing decent services to Australians, something he clearly doesn’t care about. He wants to return to mass outsourcing to their favourite consultants #insiders

The US right (and to some extent their acolytes in other countries) have been entirely allowed to define "DEI" by their own terms.
It does not mean, and has never meant, hiring or training unqualified candidates or lowering standards. But they're constantly imply that with no push-back.

Please help pushback against Dutton and News Corp’s nuclear disinformation by sharing these very simple FACTS which show nuclear power is more expensive, slower and will contribute a tiny share of power generation as compared to renewables. The nuclear campaign is designed to undermine renewables👇🏻
