End stage capitalist con artists like you are the very reason Australia was inundated by mass immigration in the first place.

What utter slop Barrythebinchicken and an utter insult to any renter in this country, all the while also coming from a place of privilege that is entirely oblivious to what working class Australians face today.

And the worst part about you is that you're not satiated with that privilege at all, wanting our working class to suffer even more just so you can keep filling your passively earned coffers.

You're against the fair go and completely un-Australian in my book.

Keep posting your youth crime is out of control newscorp slop while you simultaneously screw them over financially.

Name checks out.

Edit: Looks like the racists are out in full force today.

Is this David's absolute resolute position anyway?

I wonder, given that he's new to the leadership position and could have been caught off guard, having to toe the previous party line on this.

"While Shoebridge insisted the party’s position has been “clear from day one”, parliamentary records show the Greens backed a Senate motion supporting military aid to Ukraine after Vladimir Putin launched his full-scale invasion in 2022."

I'm none the wiser from any of this..

Fuck off yanks.

Bring on the WW3 induced global EMP bomb exchange. Just imagine of all the free potting mix Costa could stick in the back of his horse kart.

Pertaining to the Coalition's Discretionary Grants from 2017–2021

A Grattan Institute report found that out of 19,000 grants, Coalition-held seats received $1.9 billion, while Labor seats received only $530 million—allocating double the funding to government-held seats on average.

OP, is your complaint that Labor didn't pork barrel enough here?

"14 August marked a historic moment in Anthony Albanese’s professional career: he has now served longer as Prime Minister than Paul Keating, making him the 11th longest serving PM.

He will knock off a few more PMs before this term is through: he will overpass Ben Chifley on 30 October, Andrew Fisher on 17 March, and Alfred Deakin on 2 April.

The Australian Labor Party seems to have solved (at least for now) its historic problem with instability. Plagued by “faceless men” and splits in 1916, 1931, and 1955, the party long seemed on the verge of collapse in comparison to its opposition.

But with its large majority in the House of Representatives and the Liberal Party in a state of crisis, the ALP is more secure in federal government than it has been in decades.

And yet, the Albanese Government’s time in power has been marked by its lack of ambition.

You can see this lack of ambition when you compare Albanese’s time in office so far to previous Labor governments.

Though its time in office was short, the Gough Whitlam Government between 1972 to 1975 was one of the most ambitious federal governments in Australia’s history. Its only rivals are the Curtin-Chifley Labor Governments of 1941 to 1949.

In less than three years, the Whitlam Government introduced 697 bills: 254 in 1973, 229 in 1974, and 214 in 1975. The Senate rejected 93 of those bills – a record number that testifies both to the political resistance the Whitlam Government faced from the Liberal–Country coalition and the sheer quantity of legislation introduced in this short period.

Whitlam’s reforms covered almost every aspect of federal government activity and Australian life. In its time, the Whitlam Government:

Supported equal pay for women and introduced a supporting mother’s benefit;

Abolished tertiary fees and boosted funding for schools based on the basis of need;

Formally ended the White Australia Policy through the Racial Discrimination Act 1975;

Introduced no-fault divorce through the Family Law Act 1975;

Addressed geographical inequality through the Department of Urban and Regional Developmentt.

Strengthened environmental and heritage protections; and

Modernised Australia’s relationship with Great Britain by the removal of “colonial relics” (such as the imperial honours system and God Save the Queen as our national anthem).

The Bob Hawke Government between 1983 to 1991 was similarly ambitious (albeit with a much more neoliberal edge than Whitlam). After its election in 1983, the Hawke Government:

Liberalised the economy by floating the dollar;

Introduced the Child Support Scheme to address child poverty;

Reformed the university sector through the Dawkins reforms (which included the reintroduction of fees and the introduction Higher Education Contributions Scheme (HECS), the creation of a Universal National System of higher education, and the increase of enrolment in fields crucial for economic growth);

Opened employment to women through the Sex Discrimination Act 1984, Public Service Reform Act 1984, and the Affirmative Action (Equal Opportunity for Women) Act 1986; and

Addressed Aboriginal affairs through the creation of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission (ATSIC), although it could not live up to its promises on native title and a treaty.

It would be difficult to collate a list of similar significance of the Albanese Government’s achievements.

Albanese’s most ambitious project so far has been the 2023 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice referendum, which, despite its failure, was a genuine attempt to rewrite the Constitution in new terms that addressed Australia’s colonial history.

Otherwise, the Albanese Government has either tinkered at the edges of Australian society, such as amending the stage 3 tax cuts, along with negative gearing and the capital gains discount in the 2026-27 budget; or inherited the policies and frameworks of previous Coalition governments, including the AUKUS submarine deal and NDIS cuts.

The Albanese Government’s lack of ambition is striking given its context. Not only does it hold a large majority in the House of Representatives, with no effective Opposition to provide resistance, but there is a popular demand for the Commonwealth to do more. Despite the impression given by the commentariat, the Government’s amendments to the CGT discount and negative gearing were largely popular among Australians according to a recent Resolve Political Monitor Poll (even among home-owners).

It is possible that Albanese learned the wrong lessons from the failed 2023 Voice referendum. Rather than taking that failure as a sign that the Commonwealth should pursue future reform through parliament, as opposed to through the Constitution, the Albanese Government appears almost shell-shocked after that experience, and instead has dropped most of its more ambitious reforms from its agenda. Perhaps the 2026–27 Budget’s improvements to housing equality are a sign the Commonwealth has remembered it can govern."

Not fooling anyone pretending to champion for the disabled channel 7. Better off sticking to your wheelhouse, sponsoring rapists and greenwashing your mining sponsors.

Try telling us this in 10 years like just like you told us climate change wasn't real 10 years before you traitor of a cunt Murdoch

Au contraire, passive income earning LNP shills greatest fear is a government that decides to put productivity first and this is why you hate Labor, Australia's working class battlers and any policy that will benefit anyone but the passive earning class grifter.

All good. Would love to get my hands on some decent non pollen chucked genetics within AU.

Bonus. Can you get it in seed form?

Stay out of our politics yank

Right up Binchicken's ally then.

Waynker. End stage corporate lapdog capitalists like you lap this sheight up. In fact people like you watch the movie Idiocracy, confused at the main character's issue with the world.

Seriously how is a "Sky News" story considered worthy of posting anywhere bar a RW cooker forum?
