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

    I no longer vote for either of the Major parties and their minor party supporters. They have not deserved my support. Every time the govt flips from Labor-to-LNP and back again, nothing changes - they are still awarding themselves massive pay hikes (and don't give me that rot about the stupid...

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

    Vote for change. Neither Labor nor Liberals, Greens nor Nationals have shown they have any idea what's needed. They are out of touch with the mess they have created in the Welfare system, and nor do they care. Each election we get the same rhetoric ... that they will control inflation, bring...

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

    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...

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!

    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?
