From July 1, every working woman in Australia will get a tax cut. 90% of working women will get a bigger tax cut. It’s that simple.

Karen Grogan steers through Jane Hume’s interruptions to reveal through Treasury’s Laura Berger-Thompson that “11.5million are getting a bigger tax cut” and “5.8mill of those are women” meaning “90% of women taxpayers are getting a bigger tax cut than they would have”👍#Senate

What about 10k rejected by flawed fast track which Labor accepted was not fair still in limbo?

WITHOUT MERCY - MOATS with George Galloway Ep 290


Never forget that it was Dutton who opened the door for closet racists.


Yes, please. I want to live in a country which celebrates its 65,000-year-old living culture, not one which denies it a voice.


Despite this neglect, she invited the bastard to a family conversation at the bastard’s talking shop. Surely the bastard will let her in by voting Yes. 2/2


Australia’s ancient, original mother culture was raped by the greater firepower of British culture and produced a bastard culture which grew strong but deserted its mother….. 1/2


Very important question.

Will these reforms affect the flawed and unfair fasttrack system and the IAA ???

2017-18 was height of biggest labour trafficking scam in OZ history (it took place by air). It happened under Dutton/Pezzullo’s nose. Yet he was worried about what people smugglers by boat (largely closed down) would think of who was appointed Home Affairs Minister?


Fee-Free TAFE boosts social mobility more than any other form of tertiary education.

Big news. 214,339 Australians have enrolled in Fee-Free TAFE. That’s almost 35,000 more enrolments than we promised. And more than 60% are women. This is terrific because it helps Australians earn more and gives business the skilled workers they need.



Surely those families who arrived by boat before OSB and have spent ten law-abiding years in Australia on numerous 6-month Bridging Visas in dire circumstances should be eligible to apply for one of these 20,000 Humanitarian Visas, too.

The Albanese Government is committed to securing our borders, while maintaining our sense of humanity. With more people displaced worldwide than ever before, we’re stepping up to play our part in the global resettlement effort in a responsible way.

Wonder if any economists will link the unexpected surplus & record employment growth in 22-23 with the unanticipated, record net migration of people who have to work to survive? smh.com.au/politics/feder…


Dutton’s No to the Voice misses an opportunity to slow the dying of the Liberal Party.

Liberal MP Bridget Archer says Labor took the Voice proposal to an election and it's time for the Liberals to get out of the way. #auspol #VoiceToParliament

The 152-year-old @BAESystemsplc shipyard in Barrow-in-Furness employs more than 11,000 people. The sheer scale of the facility here in the UK is incredible and shows the potential and opportunities that lie ahead for South Australia and Australia.

Asylum seeker apps continued upwards climb in Jan23 reaching 1,703 from a pandemic low of 600 per month. Total refused not departed now at 72,058 with 39,245 at AAT. No sign of any political party or asylum advocates wanting to talk about this.
