I am so disappointed in Australia for not helping one of its own more. This line: ‘we are extending to #Assange the same consular services to any citizen” - In that case, where’s the proof they’d protect any of us at all? #auspol #FreeAssange & #RaiseTheRate - #peoplematter 🇦🇺
It would be nice if it were true. Employers DO NOT automatically transfer extra money they get from higher productivity to workers. In fact they have been keeping most of it for decades now.
The party of progressive change everyone
The story of Australia is the story of Labor – and if you want progressive change, you need to join a party of government, not a party of protest. My federal political report to the ACT Labor conference: andrewleigh.com/speech_act_lab… #auspol @AustralianLabor
When you were studying it was free and houses only cost 3x as much as the average income - I think we need a bit more than penalty rates
Penalty rates helped me get through uni. When I was a student, I often worked the Saturday night shift at Pancakes on the Rocks between 11pm and 7am. Giving up a weekend was worth it because of penalty rates. They meant I could study and still pay the bills. I know how much…
And then the Iman sang and prayed over him. Before he was covered over and this covered with sand to form a mound. May he, this fine man, who deserved better from this world in which he strived to make a difference and to find peace within, rest in peace. Safe now. Secure.
We don’t have one flag … we have a Union Jack in the corner with the stars of the Southern Cross. So we are still symbolically a British ‘colony’. When will Advance support Australia becoming a republic with a new unifying flag? That Aboriginal flag looks good.
We stand under one flag, united. That’s how it should be.
Too many job losses across Australia and many occupations gone from the workforce. It’s clear to all that service is lacking, regulations ignored and rights disregarded - more and more. As business tell people they’re too expensive to hire, they leech wealth from us all. #auspol
Let’s start by calling things what they are, what’s happening in Gaza is a clear genocide, live-streamed to the world for nearly two years now!!
Discussing the correct measure 4 un & under employment is important, but it’s not addressing that we have these issues in the first place. How about eliminating involuntary un & underemployment altogether so that it’s not a thing? #jobguarantee
I empathise, better solution however is 2 eliminate involuntary unemployment & underemployment 💯 entirely, and along with it the fear & stigma of involuntary unemployment which is used to suppress wages & conditions… #jobguarantee #MMT #LearnMMT
Yeah, keep your beef USA. Australia really does have its own. You know - support local first and all that? 🤨
US submarine in the mouth of the Brisbane river. It’s kind of gross really? Are they showing us what we bought for them? 🤦♀️
I’d like to congratulate @TomKlingenstein and the @ClaremontInst for making @jhk_______ a Publius Fellow. It truly makes a lot of sense that a conservative organisation funded by a Jewish financier would be so interested in promoting the work of the head of anti immigration…
