‘The leader of the government party negotiated with the leader of opposition party and she agreed to his terms, so this is very much Albanese’s fault’ is a cognitive dissidence not even my ex could manage
Hate to hand it to Albanese, but he's turned a month of horrid and unfair treatment at the hands of the Libs and media into another Coalition break up.
Dastardly masterful politics.

I’m all for making Jewish Australians safer. It is their fundamental right to be safe and free from attacks.
But what I am NOT for is allowing a radical, right-wing Zionist wish-list become policy in Australia because their voices (and donations) are the biggest.

‘Pry open the jaws of Treasury’ to fund CSIRO amid hundreds of job losses, Labor MP Ed Husic tells own party
Husic, who oversaw CSIRO cuts as the former science minister, said some in government see scientific agency funding as a ‘cost’ not an ‘investment’
Ed Husic has challenged his own government to “pry open the jaws of Treasury” to boost funding for Australia’s national scientific agency after it announced up to 350 research jobs would be cut to deal with an imminent budgetary cliff.
The Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) announced on Wednesday it would look to cut between 300 and 350 research unit roles as part of efforts to narrow its research scope and address an ageing property portfolio in need of urgent modernisation. Continue reading...

Amazing what you hear in Glebe - Forest Lodge cafes
Fab morning at my local cafe evesdropping on a couple of young future incels discussing how wage inequality is just bullshit, it’s that women work less and the kinds of jobs they choose. The new girlfriend “has opinions” but he’s bringing her around. Luckily this old sticky beak is invisible.

Governments keep making our housing crisis worse – and they’ve just done it again
Back in 2003, then prime minister John Howard spoke to ABC radio Brisbane and made the infamous claim that no one was approaching him on the street to complain about their house prices going up.

One real sign the labour market is struggling - annual employment growth of 25-64yos (ie "prime aged workers") is just 1.3% - well below the 2015-19 avge of 2.1 (which tbh was not a period of strong growth)
