@newscomauHQ Drag Libs to the right? Hehe, I think that ship has sailed. The most repeated phrase at a Lib branch meeting “we will change the party from within”, but u can’t they’re cooked.
A senior Albanese cabinet minister says former prime minister Tony Abbott will drag the Liberals further to the right after he was elected party president. Full story: bit.ly/4nUNVf0
@SkyNewsAust Both parties r to blame for the debt, but get over that and tell us how ur going to pay it off?
No plan? Keep spending? More debt?
Ok got it, “it’s was the Libs fault”. Makes sense now.
One of Labor’s most senior ministers accused the Coalition of racking up a half-trillion-dollar budget hole, but admitted she did not know exactly how the figure was calculated.

@ClareONeilMP Through all of human history parents have worked hard to provide some kind of legacy for their kids. You and ur socialist party now want to destroy all our efforts and rob our kids from a helping hand. The next election can’t come fast enough.
People should not become wealthy from NDIS. .
“Key figures in the Gillard government, who founded the NDIS, have gone on to chair union-backed super funds that are the biggest financial winners from the disability scheme.
In the largest transaction in NDIS history, a firm co-owned by more than a dozen industry funds turned a $28m investment into a $360m payday in just four years.
The firm, IFM Investors, used its “private equity” division to buy over 80 per cent of the largest NDIS plan management company, Adelaide-based My Plan Manager, from founder Claire Wittwer-Smith in 2019.
Documents obtained by this masthead reveal IFM forked out $26.8m in cash to a former special ed teacher, who had started My Plan Manager (MPM) in 2014 after leaving a job at the National Disability Insurance Agency.
At the time of the buy, IFM Investors was chaired by ex federal Labor cabinet minister and one-time ACTU boss Greg Combet.
When IFM sold MPM in 2023, Mr Combet had left. But former Labor cabinet minister Lindsay Tanner had joined as a director.
IFM Investors is ultimately owned by industry super funds including Hesta – chaired by former Labor health minister Nicola Roxon – and Cbus, whose board is led by ex Labor treasurer Wayne Swan.
All four were ministers under Julia Gillard, who founded the NDIS.

Disabled people should not be treated like commodities.
The fact that NDIS companies can be sold for millions of dollars shows that the scheme has been set up in a way to benefit grifters and not disabled people.
It should as no surprise that superannuation funds are involved in this grifting as they have a long established track record in grifting fees from poor working Australians.
Nor should it come as no surprise that the Labor party are behind this grifting.
Hiding behind their faux bleeding hearts are multimillionaires deceiving taxpayers of hard earned tax dollars and disabled people the proper support they need.
And don’t forget the money Superannuation funds pour into foreign owned renewables.

@australian Hehe the Liberal party has been booting conservatives out of their membership for years. Now they want them back? Libs can go eat a bag of dicks.
An Australian tech titan has joined his peers by tearing into Labor’s capital gains tax overhaul, decrying the move which he said will force founders to move overseas.

@australian I do everything i can to avoid putting a cent into super. Big government mandated system, huge government oversight, subject to government rule changes. No Thanks!
THE FACTS: Too many Australians and especially young Australians are being priced out of the market by property investors backed by big tax breaks.
That's why we’re reforming the tax system to help more young people buy a home of their own.

@craigkellyAFEE@Rexdinasaur 100% it’s a giant intelligence failure by our politicians for importing these terrorists. Just like importing Isis brides. They have zero intelligence.
"Intelligence Failure" ?
I wonder how much of the 'giant intelligence failure' stemmed from Albanese playing politics — by claiming the biggest threat was 'right-wing extremism' rather than Islamic terrorism ?
