The Murdoch press is only consumed by aging boomers at golf clubs and apparently government hacks, they’ve never had the power that people have ascribed to them

The Real NDIS Fraud Isn't The Fraudsters | Punters Politics YouTube video by Punter's Politics

The real problem with the NDIS is the neo-con free market bullshit about how privatisation is always better that was inherent in the design of the scheme. Kicking a bunch of autistic kids won't solve this structural problem.

I could be wrong but I suspect the widespread anger over gas companies profiteering at the expense of the Australian taxpayer may see the Labor government finally do *something* about it. A half -arsed measure like their gambling ad reforms, but enough to say to voters they did *something*

“We’re helping too many people with disabilities” is a hell of a line from a Labor government

ALP too scared to take on the gas industry that strips billions from our country each year; but not shy about kicking the crutches out from under hundreds of thousands of disabled Australians. So gutsy Albo.

'Employment services' are an ATM for crooks.

Australia news live: Mark Butler says NDIS changes are ‘hard decisions’ but will stop scheme becoming ‘ATM for crooks’ Follow live

Why is the NDIS an 'ATM for crooks'?

Aren't paid consultancies an ATM for crooks?

Isn't giving away all our gas an ATM for crooks?

Isn't AUKUS an ATM for a crook with an orange painted face?

another dude with the right ideas about gambling about to crash against the immovable object that is the Australian Labor Party addiction to gambling company kickbacks.

I don't go to these pokie palaces, even the RSL is off limits. My local yachtie has no pokies and no keno, and the revenue from the bar and restaurant go to the kids sailing programs. Better things are possible.

Australians are being played by Rinehart and Hanson, and the media is helping – Amy Remeikis Legacy media's refusal to scrutinise One Nation is going to hurt the country

It should worry you that the One Nation candidate on track to win Farrer thinks it is "above his paygrade" whether Gina Rinehart is funding the party.

Not knowing anything has become a brand.

It also lets you pretend innocence interviewing fascists and pedophiles.

Woolworths engaged in ‘marketing magic’ to trick customers, consumer watchdog tells court The trial between the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission and the supermarket giant began in the federal court in Sydney on Tuesday

This fake ‘on special’ pricing yo-yo bullshit by supermarkets needs to be stopped.
If the can sell it at the ‘on special’ they can sell at that price all the time

New Australia Institute research shows that the Japanese Government makes more revenue taxing Australian gas than the Australian Government!

Absolutely convinced that governing is much harder than armchair critics like myself can imagine it being. But it can’t be as hard as they’re making it look.

ABC News shows images of car up on the kerb and crashed into a fence at the Melbourne Showgrounds.

The voice over “a car that allegedly jumped a kerb and crashed into a fence”

It is not alleged, you just showed that it happened. The evidence is in front of your face. Journalism is dead.

I’m not sure to make this more clear to everyone.

Bicycles are important to our survival.

Look at the dinosaurs, they didn’t have any and look how they turned out.

Extremely normal and fine for a company to put this in a public statement

THIS!!!

There were some absolute losers with printed signs outside Marvel Stadium today trying to drum up support for Ben Roberts-Smith and as I passed by I did not see one person go and talk to them or indicate any sort of support for them. I also note that there was not one woman in their group of 20ish
