When asked if the govtβs new Apprenticeship program was βworthwhileβ, Jacinta Price said
βThrowing more taxpayer money to boost trades isnβt the answerβ
Doesnβt want taxpayers funding trades, but happy to slug them for hubby to attend CPAC events? Really disgraceful. #auspol

Strong agree. The βwe pay taxes tooβ argument doesnβt wash either. If you pay taxes and donβt use public transport thereβs no expectation of the government subsiding your car, the fuel and service costs or building the garage you keep it in.

Graph showing the index of profits and wages since 2001 (2001 = 100). Profits are at 492, wages at 335
With profits in December having a jump and wages not, this is what the latest graph of wages and profits since 2001 looks like
Last week we said wages were not driving inflation. Today the latest data shows wages were up 0.9% in the Dec 2025 quarter. Profits were up... 6.4% and non-mining profits were up 5.5%.
Gee what a coincidence that happened at the same time inflation spiked

Interestingly, Bush called a criminal act by non-government individuals an act of war and used it as an excuse to invade two countries.
Why are we spending $130 million on a Royal Commission into antisemitism, but nothing to tackle Islamophobia or any other form of racism? Do some lives matter more than others? #auspol

At some point conservative politicians in Australia will have to face a reckoning for encouraging white supremacism and ignorant rage.

And every one of the owners of the biggest platforms has allowed or ensured the severe enshittification of its service, & in many cases an increase in the abuse and disrespect of women & the endangerment of children. Boy billionaires, making the world worse for everyone else as fast as they can.

Financial Times exclusive: Tens of thousands of internal emails and documents released by the US Department of Justice as part of the Epstein files paint for the first time a vivid picture of how Deutsche Bank rolled out the red carpet for the serial sexual abuser.

I donβt want to be crude * but I have a full bladder and Iβm wondering if she will have a grave somewhere or will she get a foretaste of her eventual destination by being cremated.

Pauline Hansonβs bigotry and vitriol have real world consequences for people. It empowers racists, who otherwise might not act out their impulses. The problem is exacerbated when those feeling empowered are police or public servants with power & influence

Iβm surprised the appeal didnβt find that the original magistrate was pissed. Certainly sounds like it.
Sussan Ley tweet, Feb 2024: If you live in Frankston and you've got a problem with Victorian women being assaulted by foreign criminals, vote against Labor. If you do not want to see Australian women being assaulted by foreign criminals, vote against Labor. Send Labor a message.
Farrer, do better this time.
