    Factory closure reveals deeper cracks in manufacturing future

    This renewables at all cost policy will cripple the country. It's ironic that Australia has been closing coal fired power stations while sending coal to China so they can fire up 460 odd more power stations, which are used to supply energy to the companies who make all our renewable equipment...

    Labor aged care reforms 'meaningful' but fall short of royal commission vision, says watchdog

    I have both forms of Multiple Sclerosis, and am entitled to 1 hour of housework a fortnight. I was diagnosed in 2020, on my 65th birthday and as such was ineligible for the NDIS. I was told I had probably had it for around 6 years prior to that, but was constantly being misdiagnosed. Because...

    Electricity prices just jumped again! This switch could save you up to $390

    False news. Albo promised we would have cheaper power in his first term. He was voted back in, so obviously he did. Perhaps in an alternate reality, but not this one. Crappy treasurer and crappy Prime Minister.
