It’s another fabulous Tina Tuesday!

Sarah Ferguson asks if we should ‘give something back’ to gas giants in exchange for a tax.
David Pocock “why we bargain with them?”
“I don’t think we need to give anything back. We just want a return for our gas!” 🔥 #auspol

If there was, surely one of them would have half a clue? Purely out of statistical probabilities?

I understand many politicians are morons I get that. They're products of schools that are more concerned with income than outcome

But surely someone in the room got the memo from the last 2 elections?

20k.

Less than the number of hospo workers in Townsville

Those jobs are under far more threat from $ saving automation than from coughing up what they owe

They'll throw a hissy fit & throw the toys

Fuck them. Where else will they find the gas, plus the roads, ports, workforce?

25% is a bargain

Dr Richard Denniss dismantles the gas industry’s favorite threat.
If taxes kill investment, why is the gas industry rushing to Norway to pay 78%? 🙄
“They are playing us for fools.” 🔥
Nationals’ Susan McDonald has no rebuttal & scrambles to change the subject. #auspol

Submarine agency external spending hit record high amid 'secretive' culture review Ray Athwal Ray Athwal Data Journalist. Published 08 April 2026 Australia’s submarine agency is committing record funding to external firms for management and support services while maintaining a “secretive” stance on internal assessments of its own workplace culture. While AUKUS was framed as a means to establish sovereign industrial capability, an analysis of procurement contracts showed the agency has relied on a small group of private providers.

Wtf???

So, no money for NDIS but all the money for AUKUS - and they're outsourcing $$$ to external private firms?!

Forklift?

To be honest, nothing would have surprised me

All good. Going to delete mine

Got a feeling there's a few with questions to answer

Don't the League have independent medicos observing for possible head knocks etc? If so, what game were they watching?

What about the 4th ump? Can they go to Carlton at 1/4 time & enquire?

But the pre game looks damning for the Blues

Serious charges pending. One dead, one critical. The cops on scene will have been giving nothing away

I get that it is "cautious" reporting but I also understand why everyone is shy of lawyers these days

Stop praising Orbán for not attempting a coup.

He only stepped down because Magyar's win was too massive to steal.

He rigged the constitution, captured the institutions, and used state media to his advantage.

He did everything he could to destroy democracy, and he failed

A Wobbly!

How the Greens could win 25 per cent of the vote The Greens need to get out of their own bubble and do some very serious soul searching if they are ever to have broad appeal, argues a co-founder of the Queensland and Australian Greens, Drew Hutton.

Yes, yes, yes - they definitely do!!

They need to start waking up up NOW

Look at their website - DEAD!

Start looking like you deserve to be an alternative government!!!
