ABC coverage on radio of EPBC act passing as all negative only quoting some whiny Sussan from a fringe right wing party.
If you wonder why we have been banging on about how the LNP are utterly irrelevant to govt policy, just look at today's deal on the EPBC Act.
We really do not need to care about what Sussan Ley thinks

Labor & LNP have had a unity ticket on housing and tax policy that's created the #HousingCrisis.
The Albanese govt must bring in necessary reforms, and stop tinkering around the edges.
Doing nothing is not just reinforcing the status quo.
It means things will get even worse. #inequality #auspol

Did you know the definition of ‘housing stress’ is when 30% of your household income is taken up by your rent or mortgage?
This isn’t normal.

About time they cracked down on illegal tobacco. They are everywhere.
Yeah our local ones probably don't have long left
Ten illegal tobacco stores have been closed this week under new state government laws prohibiting the sale of illegal tobacco in New South Wales.

Regional tobacco retailers issued 90-day bans in NSW for illegal sales
Shopfronts were plastered with yellow closure orders this week by the Chief Health Officer, alerting the public to breaches of new laws.

Unacceptable, they need to get rid of Brereton to try to recover the integrity of the commission.
AGAIN we find out that Commissioner Major General Brereton had been involved in undisclosed conflicts of interest. What’s it going to take for the Albanese Government to finally realise his position is untenable??

Our voter base is dying,we need to start indoctrinating them young like we do in church. How about we stack the school curriculum board.
The Queensland government has reshuffled its school curriculum board to introduce "a diverse skill set" — including a former Catholic Education director and a founding member of right-wing lobby group Advance Australia. #qldpol

The Advance Australia founder is among three new members appointed to replace unceremoniously dumped union leaders.

Liberals will now need to develop policies of book burning and removal of all out spoken scientists. Replace science in schools with teaching flat earth and clean gas.
Part of me wants to celebrate, because they're awful, and this will destroy them, but:
1. Many people still agree with them.
2. It's not funny, the science is clear, it's an existential issue.
3. It just makes life even easier for Labor, another ecocidal party.

Don Farrell asked why after all this time, the #NACC still hasn’t made any major findings of corruption.
“That’s an indication that the system is working. There is no corruption, & I say that's a good thing!”
Appalling response. It doesn’t even make sense. Makes my blood boil.

Homo Sapiens emerged about 300,000 years ago.
Imagine you gave an early Sapiens $9,000. And they looked at you and said “the fuck is this?”
But anyway, you piled up $9,000 Every Single Day since the first Sapiens walked the Earth.
You still wouldn’t have a trillion dollars.
Capitalism is fucked

Yep. So we now celebrate a bush fire that killed over 70 people with retail sales!
Guess no one remembers that now.
But I want to know why do we have to follow the US in everything? 15 years ago or so no body did Halloween here. Till shops pushed it.
