    Tech mogul claps back at Anthony Albanese after announcing this bill

    Musk? Trump does NOT “preside” over his own country just yet, thus his cohorts’ arrogant abuse of his yet to be sworn role is inconsequential to Australia’s politics. Perhaps Musks’ real issue is his bottomline and how his new role will swell his coffers, and certainly not the welfare of any...

    Newly proposed aged care structure to impact Aussies's wallets soon

    Improvements? How? Where? Keeping us in our own homes? Utter socialist propaganda and dereliction of duties of care for our elders. A 98 year old Australian man, limited finances, no superannuation , but worked 17 hours a day to pay off the home he is STILL living in, is about to have his...

    Scootin' away: Thieves steal more than just wheels from 85-year-old resident

    A similar incident at a retirement village in Albury NSW; where a huge hole was cut in fencing ( time and effort required and no one noticed???); which begs the immediate and obvious question of safety and security of our Elders in these places. Regulatory and obligatory Duty of Care negated...

    Monarchist groups criticise premiers for absent reception during royal visit

    Premiers “personal”opinions are neither appropriate nor appreciated in ANY area of their appointed representation of citizens. The negligence is a “slap in the face” not only to the man who, whether we agree or not; REMAINS the monarch; but an extraordinarily arrogant, presumptive “slap in the...

    Simple mistake at your next GP visit could lead to unexpected expenses

    The financial burden of healthcare for aging Australians AND families is horrific as services and procedures are withdrawn from Medicare AND consequently Private Health rebates. A government FOR the people ???

    Cutting it close: Doctor's mid-flight mishap raises security concerns and delays!

    Would the court have been so lenient on an “elderly” tradesperson . ALL travellers are warned well in advance of prohibited items and of consequences of ignoring same. What is also alarming is that the scanners did not detect the potential weapon.

    Experts reveal why the Centrelink pension won't cut it for Aussies in retirement

    The presumption is that divorced women (and men) have received a successful; or at least fair; settlement, that we have superannuation and an inheritance. There are MANY slipping between ALL of those cracks as homeless, hand to mouth seniors.

    Notorious swim coach with troubling history passes away in hospital

    The Justice System can better protect Communities by “doing the right thing” and warning everyone in community housing AND in ANY relative community, that a convicted paedophile is in their midst, and not excusing him, or their actions, stating that he has “done his time” or because he has...

    City council considers reverting Australia Day ceremonies amid community debate

    Local governments are FAILING in their CORE ELECTED civic and social roles. Providing Roads, Rubbish afforded by our rates. They were NOT elected to impose their egos, political persuasions or aspirations upon those of us legally obliged to vote and appoint them to these positions.

    Punish those who were taxed during their working lives for the failures and ineptitude of successive governments AND OPPOSITIONS, who were all complicit in their dereliction of regulatory, administration and delivery responsibilities and duties to the Care of our Aged? Punish we who HAVE...

    Death and taxes: Aussie state’s ‘stealthy death tax’ sparks controversy!
