CSIRO 350 job cuts a damning indictment on Government priorities, misses 'golden opportunity' on research
The announcement this week that CSIRO are to cut 350 research jobs is another damning indictment on Australia’s ongoing failure to prioritise research and development.

Three clinics in inner Melbourne are being shut due to inadequate funding. These services are relied on by 12,500 people, including some of the community’s most vulnerable. Many will be unable to find alternatives, creating a healthcare crisis and putting lives in danger.

To all the extremely obvious astro-turfers (thank you for your attention, it's validating 👋) in The Sunday Shot's live chat that want to see more "balance" i.e. right-wing bullshit, just watch.... I dunno, every single other show on TV? We are the balance across a decrepit landscape. You'll cope!
