Even old lefties like me know that the overweening purpose of a business is to make (as much) money as possible; maximise prices whilst minimising costs like wages.
Rupert could could be returning to his Lenin adoration days but I doubt it.

The really depressing aspect to this is that it probably passed through the hands of a lot of highly paid party hacks and strategists before their collective decision to go public, thereby demonstrating the intellectual and moral desert that is today's LNP.

Sussan is a joke.
The LNP is in a death rattle following the ALP muscling in on their Neo-Liberal right wing agendas.

Albo in that T-Shirt made me laugh out loud; what a wanker.
Sussan whipping up imagined anti-semitism makes me cry.
We need a good opposition. We need the Greens.

The Age Editor, Creighton Burns, advised his staff that readers (BOM users here) were like passengers on a bus, sudden changes would make many of those standing fall off.

Fascinating how in my lifetime we have gone from the unique Sadaharu Oh being largely unknown outside Japan to where Japanese players are making a big mark in MLB. And Yamamoto is not just an Admiral/Battleship.
(MLB must be rolling in the cash it is making in the Japanese market.)

If you don't see that Albanese absolutely despises the Greens and deliberately tries to bypass them by lining up with the LNP instead, then I don't know what to tell you.
Albo derailed environment laws, refused to ban gambling ads, gave us a dud NACC, backs AUKUS & fights transparency. He's a dud.

The "We're for You" Herald-Sun runs an unrelenting line with the LNP to frighten the shit out of Victorians.

Wow.
Yet another Queensland National opens their mouth to prove that they are morons - gainsaying anything the ALP does, ignoring that it it is demonstrably in Australia's interest.
How unAustralian these people are.

For a senior journalist failure to acknowledge that in the modern media environment the heading is paramount is either disingenuous disassembling or ignorance.

Wow indeed. I thought D might have understood the use and power of narrative control better than that. And hey, all the supposedly non-activist journalists who have been on sponsored trips..? But only this guy’s sponsors means he is partial.
