    You have given Labour the gift of a Majority Mandate, so DEBT and more DEBT has to be paid by somebody from somewhere.

    ‘The new super tax has been designed to excuse long-serving politicians': And it’s causing outrage

    Had an experience with the you only need this card in a medical centre. The lady middle aged refused to go in for treatment as she could not afford to pay the Gap. Said she would have to wait till she had more funds. But Albo stood there with that grin and lied to our face about it and got away...

    Sacked at 63 yo for saying ‘he’—is this what work’s come to?

    Wankers, i hope he got a massive Payout :) Even if he got a backlash by continuing his Legal stoush, i would have persevered. Not eveyones cup of tea though. Yet again we have to Pander to this Woke crap. So for mine Lady = Lesbian, Male = Gay, Non Binary = Wanker.

    Great result for you and welcome as well. But I don't think a one of constitutes good service. I am pretty sure there are a lot of negatives out there as well.

    Labor has promised to tackle homelessness. Here’s what homeless people say they need

    So, who manages Housing Commission homes, the State or Federal Govt? It should have been stated as mismanaged; it's a little like most public services, slow and inadequately managed. To much demand and not responsive fast enough. Only had to use Goverment agencies one time but it took days to...

    Why doesn’t Australia make more medicines? Wouldn’t that fix drug shortages?

    Well, you have a new Labour Ministry, and I suppose that it's worth sending a letter to the designated Health Minister and getting their comment. (Possibly, you won't get a reply or comment.) It is worth trying to see if it's even on their radar?

    Labor has promised to tackle homelessness. Here’s what homeless people say they need

    The $ Cash option should remain regardless of what's best or cheapest. When the older generation is gone, you most likely will be that much closer to cashless.

    ‘It’s already here’: Expert’s warning as Australia edges closer to a cashless future

    It seems like its more a Generational gap item, from mid 50`s down people are tech savvy, above that its difficult to say as many still don't know how to use a phone for banking or other items. Not only that but are scared of banking online. I have had interceptions by scammers and they are...
