    ‘Set to get worse’: Will a $2 billion boost fix Australia’s pensioner housing crisis?

    So it was Dutton who flooded the country with 1.5 million immigrants, and not Labor. Well, I never!

    ‘Set to get worse’: Will a $2 billion boost fix Australia’s pensioner housing crisis?

    NO. Will be worse. Dutton has rubber-stamped every controversial Labor Bill, from the Digital ID to the Disinformation and Misinformation Bill to the Freedom of Speech curtailing. Expect no relief if Dutton arrives. LNP has never favoured welfare. They are for the Big End of Town. We need our...

    ‘Set to get worse’: Will a $2 billion boost fix Australia’s pensioner housing crisis?

    Our local invisible member (Labor) in Newcastle is getting ousted this term, according to the people I speak with. She is just a seat warmer for Labor. Unfortunately for constituents is it seen as a "safe seat" and Labor knows they can spend zilch in Newcastle and still retain this seat, while...

    ‘Set to get worse’: Will a $2 billion boost fix Australia’s pensioner housing crisis?

    Same. My rent went up $80/fortnight recently. Rent is now 67% of my pension. Am managing bc I have cut back on meat (Mince is now $20/kg at Coles). Have increased shopping for things like noodles and cereals, bananas and frozens. Took new Tenancy contract to Centrelink and they noted it, saying...

    I think this is your year, Abby22 No one has so diligently scrutinised this game as you have. Good luck with it. Bingo looks to have staggered out of the gates following the New Year, but am certain it's just the software playing up. 🌺 😊 🌹🌻

    Hidden charges alert: Aussies could be owed a fortune after $145 million illegal fees exposed!

    😂 I'll be in that. I think I was charged $1.19 fee, so 20 bucks would be ok with me!

    Hidden charges alert: Aussies could be owed a fortune after $145 million illegal fees exposed!

    Would you trust govt to do that? We do not have the processes in place needed to ensure transparency. They are already building houses - what could stop them claiming the $145 mil was spent in housing, without transparency processes?

    Yes we love to biff them when we are unhappy. But good on you for highlighting this generous activity from Coles. That made my day.

    Are you getting your ‘free’ products from Coles? Find out about this secret ‘loophole’ before it’s gone!

    Our daughter-in-law wanted to help us out, and asked us to trial online orders. She did the ordering and we refunded to her what she spent. I could not believe how good the quality of the fruit and veg was. It was better than what I might have chosen. So we tried the other major supermarket...

    Are you getting your ‘free’ products from Coles? Find out about this secret ‘loophole’ before it’s gone!

    Totally agree. Would you like it if people do this to you if you are in business. It's an abuse. Coles are making an offer to meet people half-way. Why abuse that? End result: Coles will block your substitutions, and it may mean the end of this compromise for all shoppers. Australians are...

    Attention, Aussies: Are YOU at risk of a snowballing $330 fine? Find out now!

    I wonder if I can get to speak to your son. I have some taxation issues that will require some inside compassion. But believe me, I am not expecting any sympathy from the ATO> I know they have a job to do, and they do not make the laws, but I believe they do have some flexibility on how the law...

    Attention, Aussies: Are YOU at risk of a snowballing $330 fine? Find out now!

    If you are a Labor supporter, you could be (and darned well should be) embarrassed that your Party is handling public money so contemptuosly. See attachments. Don't feel too bad though - the LNP will behave exactly the same once Labor is booted - they are the Uniparty that One Nation speaks...
