@PatrickGormanMP 80% of those 49,000 jobs were probably in the bloated public sector and productivity will be further reduced.

49,000 new jobs created for Australians in just one month. That is what February's latest labour force data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics tells us.

@DavrosyDavros @S_GerardRennick Actually, batteries set the price for over 20% of electricity generated but only provide around 3% of that electricity. All generator's get paid the price set by the highest bidder. Which are the battery operators. Go figure.

The high electricity price is due to the high cost of gas for back up. Even if there is reservation, gas companies will charge domestic users more than the export price. What is also required is a lower, controlled price. The current wholesale price is more that double the USA price.

The One Nation team has this week renewed its push in the Senate for legislation to build a strategic gas reserve for Australia. The plan would require a portion of the gas produced here to be held back for domestic use instead of being exported, with the goal of:

@questionr @S_GerardRennick @BaronBurleigh2 Current ministers can't run a country. I'd rather someone with the national interest center stage rather than ideology.

@S_GerardRennick @BaronBurleigh2 Some but how will they field candidates that can run a portfolio and a bureaucracy?

Does One Nation reflect your values? 🇦🇺🤔 ❤️ Yes 👍 No

@S_GerardRennick Where will the oil come from? How many years of proven oil reserves does Australia have? If the oil is imported, the problem isn't mitigated.

Should Australia refine its own fuel again?

@MAGAPHLB @AyatollahArafei Ok ok. You sold me. Where can I get one?

The Qatari Foreign Ministry says Iran's attacks against it 'cannot be left without retaliation' Minutes after the statement, Iran fired 10 extra missiles at Doha... ...See more

@MRobertsQLD I saw a comparison of sole trader accountants. Same qualifications, same job. Working for themselves. The men were earning more on average than women by more than the gender pay gap. You can't tell me that's men's fault.

For 60 years, it has been illegal to pay a woman less than a man for the same job. Yet the Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA) continues to release "gender pay gap" reports that refuse to compare like-for-like roles. They use raw averages that ignore the reality of human choice, i.e. the fact that many women choose to prioritise family and motherhood over "climbing the corporate ladder" or working 80-hour weeks. This isn't about equality; it’s a globalist agenda using flawed statistics to devalue the family unit and sow division between men and women. We need facts, not manufactured grievances. It’s time to stop the spin and start respecting the choices Australian families actually make.

@Kon__K Zero evidence provided that migrants are the entrepreneurs.

NAB have just published a study of where Australia’s most entrepreneurial neighbourhoods are. No surprises they all have one thing in common: a high migrant population. Again migrants are the backbone of this nations economy not its burden to be stopped or politicised & vilified.

@Saghar409 26

How many squares....!!! 99.9% will fail..?

@firstfusilier The govt and police/security services are obviously in a reactive rather than proactive stance thus giving room for these types of attacks to occur. FWIW, I don't think that team would have made any difference given what I said above.

There are at least 4000 Islamic extremists on the ASIO watch list. The Albanese government only provided funding for 8 specialist Counter-Terrorism AFP officers to monitor them. This isn’t incompetence it’s criminal negligence. We need a Royal Commission now.

@AndrewBGreene It seems to me that the govt and security/police are on a reactionary rather than a proactive footing. Can Australia wait for multiple years for a royal commission to hand down findings? That is if it's terms of reference aren't narrowed to ineffectiveness.

Exclusive: An Australian Federal Police “national surveillance team” set up under the Commonwealth High Risk Terrorist Offender regime was quietly disbanded because of funding shortfalls just weeks before the deadly Bondi attack thenightly.com.au/australia/excl…

@centerlynx There's too much to unpack for an X thread. But if you have a different way to discuss, I'll be happy to discuss. IE: discord etc

@glens70 Thank you! This piece leans alot on the data, and since you work in that field, would be curious to know your full thoughts

1/ We built a Bivariate Map to spot NDIS Supported Independent Living (SIL) housing anomalies. Adelaide is looks suspicious when compared to Melbourne/Sydney: high participant cost relative to median rent

@firstfusilier A royal commission would be next to useless. How many years until findings are handed down? Terms of reference narrowed down to avoid inconvenient findings. The country needed leadership and decisiveness. It got silence and deflection as the news cycle passed.

More horseshit from the Albanese Government. This time a minister accuses social media of inciting calls for a Commonwealth Royal Commission which she characterises as ‘hate’. It’s not hate you fucking dimwit, it’s justice.

@senatorbabet Depends on which internet pundit you listen to. Some are saying it has as much to do with stopping China from getting a place to put intermediate range missiles that could threaten the Panama canal and reach the US mainland.

I wonder how much of what happened in Venezuela has to do with the petro dollar. Either way we have to choose. Do we want US power or do we want Chinese power. Thoughts?

@Peter_Fitz You only need to read the last paragraph of that article. Looks like the Telegraph buried the important bits in the last paragraph. It would likely be a totally different story if they used winter power prices.

From today's Sydney Daily Telegraph. A tad #awkward for those who continue to rant we can't afford renewables. In truth, the more we get, the lower the prices go! Gee, I wonder if Chris Bowen was right all along? Discuss. #Auspol

@mattjcan Didn't ALBO promise to send ~35% of our super into US markets?

They are now going to raid your super for net zero.

@craigkellyAFEE Jane should have retired from public life and dedicated herself to writing her memoirs years ago.

As thick as a brick I wonder if Jane can tell us by how many degrees (to the nearest 1/100th of a degree centigrade) that the temperature will change if we close down Australia’s remaining 21GW of coal-fired power ? When China currently a fleet of 1,100 GW of coal-fired power and they have another 484 GW under development - fools like Jane are condemning their grandchildren to lives of lower living standards under the thumb of the Chinese Communists.

@DougCameron51 Doesn't the Chinese navy doing laps around Australia convince you of the need for a capable deterrence of aggression and intimidation?

The Labor leadership must tell the public which social, health, education and govt services will be cut, and what taxes will increase to fund AUKUS and attack China. Experts say aggression against China could lead to a nuclear war. Why is Labor doing this? It beggars belief!

@Anthony_Klan Foreign dark money spend on renewables lobbying exceeded the combined election budgets of both the Labor party and coalition during the last federal election. Foreign interests are gonna put Australia in the dark.

🚨The "No" campaign against the Indigenous Voice was a fossil fuels-led sham. A major ARC study finds "Advance" a massive spreader of fossil fuels propaganda ahead of the May federal election. One of biggest impediments to fossil fuels = Indigenous rights. theklaxon.com.au/9w0g

@JaneCaro For all your criticisms of Isreal, you have never criticized Hamas when they publicly executed Palestinians on the streets. Your antisemitism is on display.

Condemning Israel’s genocide in Gaza is not anti semitic, anymore than condemning Trump & MAGA is anti American. theguardian.com/world/2025/oct…
