I thought I was one of those doing the warning, Geoff, but, yes, you are right. @mfwitches.bsky.social taking up the cudgels looks to be commercially catastrophic for the Kyle & Jackie O move into Melbourne.
Don’t say you weren’t warned Pete. This is train wreck unfolding right now 😉 @peterfitz1.bsky.social

Protagonists in our local community groups are starting up their Australia Day rhetoric early to stir up angst & division.

These flag-waving patriots might want to take a deep dive into the history of the actual day itself.

Ironic that one anon reckons it’s the venues creating division & chaos🙄

Political negligence and incompetence on a cosmic scale. What will we import next? Sheep ? Koalas ?
It’s dumb, but gas-rich Australia has little option but to import gas
Australia is one of the largest LNG exporters behind the US, so why are its most populous states at risk of running out?

Pay rises are the highest they hve been in 15 yrs.

Record number of secure jobs

Gender pay gap is lowest it has been in years.

Yet according to business & the coalition this is bad for business.

No, it’s not. Productivity is high. Workers also put more money into economy.

Don’t believe the lies

Would we have even had a Greta Thunberg without giving young people access to social media?

It's easy to pick and choose when there is no such thing as truth!!
One of the things I still don’t understand is how these tech bros can be pro-technology and anti science.

Paul Barry #MediaWatch on the rushed social media age ban outlines what Labor, LNP and mainstream media fail to:
- it won't work, and may be worse than useless
- there are better ways to 'protect kids'
- NewsCorp is pushing hard, and the govt is too gutless to resist.

Published in 2006, a brilliant book from the inimitable Chris Masters. Still in print. Highly recommended. I think ABC Four Corners did a "Jonestown" episode by Chris Masters around the same time. May be worth looking up if it hasn't been destroyed. #ThePowerAndTheMythOfAlanJones
