Fuel demand stays high, as farmers urge supermarkets to pay more for fresh produce The effects of Australia's fuel shortage begin to compound for farmers, who have called on supermarkets to help relieve the pressure, while the government urges consumers not to panic-buy.

Coles and Woolworths could pay our farmers more for fresh produce, but the have to look out for their struggling shareholders. The shareholders with their negatively geared houses and their capital gains tax concessions, these people really struggle

A screenshot of the following text, black on a white background, with a dollar sign in a circle at the top. You've skipped $32.00 on fees thanks to Delivery Unlimited $32.00 this month

Disingenuous maths on woolies' behalf here. I haven't saved $32 in a month by paying for a year's worth of free deliveries. I've saved $8, since I always pick a $2 delivery slot regardless of having a "delivery unlimited" subscription. They use a different […]

Let's hope that the #ACCC wins its case against #ColesWorth!

It is insulting that #ColesWorth imports butter from the #US after sending dairy farmers to the wall. Surely obtain from other Australian States to maintain supply or at least import from New Zealand. I hope no-one buys & it goes rank on their shelves.

Farmers fear shoppers misled by cheap 'green and gold' US butter Australia's dairy industry is concerned a US brand, packaged in green and gold with a white colouring and bland flavour, looks as if it's locally made.

#ColesWorth oversaw the destruction of the 🇦🇺 dairy industry through very aggressive pricing practices.
Justifying importation of dairy from offshore because of supply issues is a bit rich.
Check Country of Origin before you buy.

I'm going with mad laughter as an economic term of expression when I'm at #colesworth

The #ColesWorth cartel again caught stealing $1 Billion in wages from staff to pay executives bonuses and share dividends.
"We are proud to be world leaders in ripping off customers and workers everyday,” an unnamed spokesman said .

ChatGPT is not your friend. Be careful what you tell it, lawyers warn People are sharing everything from their payslips, to blood results and relationship problems with AI – but experts say the risks are high.

www.afr.com/work-and-car... Amid privacy concerns like these, regular doctors are using AI for case histories. You have to "opt out" at my local doctor. Alas Big Pharma and doc-management groups can work together through AI. Not an opportunity for small local business. Just more #Colesworth

We were thinking of getting takeouts delivered last night, and when I went on #DoorDash, I noticed #KFC had a free delivery special. Here's the kicker, tho. They had also increased the prices of their food by 20% at the same time. This is #Colesworth level of bullshit and price gouging. #auspol

Woolworths is cutting prices from Wednesday. Expect more supermarket competition – but not an all-out price war Australia’s biggest grocery chain wants to win back shoppers after a period of fast-rising prices and a cost-of-living crisis

Just a publicity piece in the media. Notice how the ABC and SBS have not reported on this? Or at least, I can’t find an article from either outlet.

Sure. She and all the people monitoring social media in the company are not aware.

Looking forward to the overpaid fatted bovine CEOs of Coles and Woolworths fronting up today. Like Qantas execs, they're full of company mantra that is rarely aired outside the tent. The cognitive dissonance is huge.

This is just plain, simple, common or garden bullying.

Make sure the message applies to Australia to include the #colesworth & shopping centre conglomerates, ALL the big corporations who’re gouging Australians & ALL the banks! Support your local small business if you can afford or barter/swap/share resources.Recycle/Reuse/Repurpose.

We all know this. Including our #ColesWorth political parties.

This is how corporate bastards take away your right to penalty rates and breaks at work: by convincing everyone that they're doing you a favour by doing so. #auspol #Colesworth

So in Australia the best we can do is pay a farmer $5 a kilo for apples rather than #ColesWorth

#FarmersMarket

They'll also tell you when the produce was picked.

and the untrammelled greed of big business who increased prices far higher than the rise in input costs (this is fact not supposition)...yes I'm looking at you #ColesWorth.
The 13 interest rate increases, undertaken by the #RBA to try & tame supply side of inflation had a crippling effect.
