Patterson has thrown out the ol’ “escalating to de-escalate” chestnut to defend Trumps threats to destroy a whole civilisation. There is really now level he won’t stoop to in order to boot lick. #auspol

Australia says it won’t raise drug prices after Trump’s 100% tariff on pharmaceuticals imported into US Health minister Mark Butler says federal government is ‘not negotiating’ when it comes to removing price protections on common medications

Rare is the occasion Australia finds the guts to stop sucking up to its 'allies' & say "NO."

But Trump just put a 100% tariff on Aussie Pharma, trying to force our prices up, so we stop underselling the beggaring prices of Big Pharma in US AND Australia. We said 'NO'

Love it. Say it more pollies!

You make a good point. But in a scenario where supply is affected and the vast majority of city/metro users are driving EV’s, that would mean that regional and industry users are not having to compete with them for supply minimising the impact.

No, they didn’t. In fact I’m pretty sure they offered “in principle” support to most government measures to address the crisis in the national interest.

Mummy Gina and Daddy Clive would love that. Angus would get many pats on the head. They would probably even let him sit up the front of the private jet.

If the liberal party had not spent a wasted decade delaying and destroying any chance of a clean energy transition, Australia would be far less reliant of fossil fuels, electric vehicles would be on the roads in a lot more peoples driveways, the fuel crisis would be barely an inconvenience. #auspol

People were saying that Albo’s statement was a bit pointless and Taylor really went “hold my beer”. Taylor’s statement was beyond useless. Nothing he said will help anybody. Entirely just regurgitating the same old Liberal Party talking points and take pot shots at the government. #auspol

Angus Taylor’s solution to the fuel crisis is …*checks notes*… mine for more coal. Excellent, that will really help all the people who…drive coal powered steam engines to work every day?🤷🏻‍♂️🤦‍♂️ #auspol

Reaching net zero by 2050 is often framed as a cost burden.

The UK Climate Change Committee’s latest analysis suggests the opposite.

The real risk is fossil fuel dependency.

True, when they say they represent “regional Australia” what they really mean is “we represent the interests of the billionaires who own large portions of regional Australia”. Plus, Matt have been born and spent his formative days on the Gold Coast, but he wears a big hat so…#auspol

Matt Canavan has been elected leader of the Nationals, because no one understands the plight of farmers working the land in regional Australia like a … *checks notes* … former management consultant and productivity commission staffer? #auspol

Let us not forget Wilson was the Chair of Morrison’s standing committee on economics when the inflation rate was over 6%. The last coalition govt had an official policy of suppressing wages. Their political DNA is built on attacking workers for the benefit of big business and billionaires. #auspol

Dr Jeremy Walker details the “enormous war chest” of Advance & lists funders inc Gina Rinehart, James Packer, IPA board, Woodside’s Charles Goode & “the priv foundation of Jillian Segal” - who pay Advance to “flood social media with aggressive Far Right disinformation”🔥 #auspol

Pretty soon Angus Taylor is going to dye his hair ginger and get a part-time gig at a fish and chip shop to try and “wine back voters from One Nation” #auspol 😂😂😂

Angus Taylor promotes Tony Abbott, John Howard and the corpse of Martin Bormann to his front bench, as party attempts to win back voters fleeing to One Nation.

Didn’t he also promote all five versions of Scott Morrison to fill various positions in the ministry 😂 #auspol

But Angus is an expert on home ownership - he has 7homes himself with innovative modes of ownership.

😂 so true

Taylor makes a clear distinction on the difference between “good immigration” and “bad immigration” . What he means is the issue is black and white. #auspol #libspill

Turnbull says Liberal Party needs to 'stop living in a right-wing populist bubble' | ABC NEWS Malcolm Turnbull tells David Speers, Patricia Karvelas and Melissa Clarke that the Liberal Party needs to move back to the centre and Angus Taylor is not the answer to the party’s problems. He says the LNP needs to start talking about the economy and deliver detailed plans for tax reform and housing

“A lot of people say about Angus Taylor that he’s the best-qualified idiot they’ve ever met.”
— Malcolm Turnbull, being surprisingly complimentary towards Angus Taylor

So… not really an improvement

Also, does Angus know Tony Abbott didn’t even last a whole term? There’s a reason they called him #onetermtony . Are we likely to see Angus chomp down an onion? #auspol

Pffft, only four flags? What is this, amateur hour? 😂🤦‍♂️🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺 #auspol #libspill #flags #moreflags

Angus Taylor wants Nuclear even though the numbers don't add up..........oh that's right numbers aren't Angus strength #auspol

commuter car parks was one of the biggest public policy scams that ever was. The car parks often weren’t anywhere near public transport links and some cost more than it would have to just build a train station. It was basically a means to funnel public money to mates. Classic Angus. #auspol

Angus Taylor's 'Watergate' links emerge in secret government deal The $80 million “Watergate” water buyback scandal was central to the creation of the NACC. Now, the Federal Environment Department has spent tens of thousands on a secretive NACC contract.

Liberal party Australia where corruption gets you promoted #auspol

Was Sussan Leys last tip to Anguss to add another S #auspol
