I put the quoted post up earlier today, since then, I’ve had a chance to reflect.
I actually feel real pity for Scott Morrison … imagine throwing a party and nobody coming … that would be totally humiliating … sometimes reality can be a harsh and unforgiving teacher.

Scotty no friends… A farewell dinner for former Prime Minister Scott Morrison has reportedly been postponed with no confirmed rescheduled date. The dinner was set to take place in the Sutherland Shire next week, with Sky News commentator Paul Murray on board to MC the event. According to The Age, organisers were confronted with a disappointing lack of RSVPs, resulting in the event being postponed without a reschedule date. In an email seen by The Age, Cook federal electorate conference president Scott Briggs said the event was postponed while the party focused its efforts on “winning big” in the electorate. Briggs also said Morrisson “ welcomes the opportunity to postpone” given his new roles in the private sector and upcoming travel commitments.

To "stop it altogether" advocates:
I was going to add that but there was a limit of 4 choices
Also, being a socialist, I think it's fair that those students get the same as public school students.
I think the same about private providers in health, care services etc

Private school funding?

@Greggreenwood17 @TomRed43 @MikeCarlton01 The country has been sold out by the extraction industries. It is hard to see a real value adding path ahead. Labor tried to move in the right direction, eg Button’s industry plan, but always undone by the LNP.

@TomRed43 @MikeCarlton01 The Hunter has been destroyed by coal mines!
The Darling Downs have been destroyed by gas fracking!
The Liverpool Plains were slated to be destroyed by fracking until native title saved it!
But talk about putting up wind turbines & solar panels & the LNP lose their minds!

Billionaires against “the elites!”

Albo is all about the activists and the elites. What about the families and the farmers?

@SerkanTheWriter Easily said. We don’t have a two party system as such, but the single seat electoral system tends to push it that way.
English
This feeling ain't going anywhere.
End the corrupt two party system and we will all lead happier and safer lives

@Greggreenwood17 @zalisteggall @simonahac No, silly. I remember my grandfather telling us about the great flood of ‘87. Just normal variations.

🚨Australia is 10 yrs behind because the Coalition did everything it could to stop & then slow energy transition down. It is still desperately trying to slow down transition to clean energy. It wants to keep coal, with no credible 2030 or 2035 emissions reduction target. #auspol

I suffer reading Murdoch and other media crap as a way to share stuff with all of you, who may not see any of it.

@colonelhogans You actually read the Telecrap?

The polls are telling us that this awful Labor gov't will get a 2nd term but with a decreased majority.
Which means they will form gov't with the lunatic greens & the elite teals.
It will be time to look for a new country.
This one will be unliveable if that happens.

Unlike the LNP and The Greens, thankfully we have a Labor PM, who wants to get things done! @AlboMP

We're working with local councils to deliver for communities across Australia.
Here in Katherine we've been upgrading the Stuart Highway, improving the NBN, and helping protect the town from floods.

Libs keep saying how bad everything has been with almost everything since Labor won but guess who was in power for almost a whole decade but never did a thing worthy of a mention .. Unbelievable

Is it concerning that the Liberal guy who says they can build a nuclear reactor in 10 years looks exactly like a recently retired pathological liar

@greg_hates_twit @OMGTheMess No we haven’t. They tan up debts against gold. Quite different. Argentina debts in foreign currency. Quite different.

Great to see MMT advocate Stephanie Kelton on Q&A - she’s absolutely right that Australia could print huge sums. Albo should print $70b and nationalise Transurban, providing enormous cost of living tolls relief in Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney. You know it makes sense.
