If you are on FB please consider giving Jarrad a follow . He is up against Christian soldier Captain Hastie . It is only about 1% swing.

Only two nations are in budget surplus, have triple A credit ratings and have reduced debt to GDP two years running: Australia and Denmark. Interesting that Australia's mainstream news media (incl. the ABC) doesn't report this news. 🤔 #auspol #journalism

Australia’s housing affordability crisis is not that difficult to solve: increase supply and lower demand by ending the incentives that treat housing as an investment vehicle rather than someone’s home. Now if only we had a government brave enough to do it.

@simonahac.bsky.social told the inquiry: “There’s not a hope in hell that we would have nuclear in Australia before 2040.”
The only reason this inquiry met is because Dutton's nuclear fantasy is a stupid distraction from his real plan:

Large reason behind Dan’s powerful popularity and immunity from Newscorp’s far right propaganda was his courage to stand up to them without fear of losing mainstream support. Courage and conviction, especially when applied to oligarchs, are incredibly appealing to voters. Just saying, Albo….
