#FridayFact Three Australian federal political leaders have presided over three national two-party-preferred vote wins in a row:-
Billy Hughes (Nationalist): 1917, 1919 & 1922
Gough Whitlam (Labor): 1969, 1972 & 1974
Bob Hawke (Labor): 1983, 1984 & 1987.
Three is the record.

@alicecoomans @Garmin That’s pretty poor! I bought my Garmin watch from Amazon, got it within 24 hours… you’d think the original manufacturer could do better! #poorcustomerservice

May 2023 be last year in which #AustraliaDay is officially observed on 26 January. It destroys our nation for no valid reason.

In the US and here in Australia, RW politicians are using Christian fundamentalism to add "weight" to their calculated harm - deceiving millions they "speak for God". Their gospel cherry-picking is abhorrent. And totally cynical. Tax all mega-churches. Limit their expansionism.

Hillsong prosperity gospel was the midwife to Robodebt. Proverbs 14:23 Prosperity comes from hard work. 2 Thess. 3:9-10 If anyone is not willing to work, neither should he eat. Prvbs 21:25 The craving of a sluggard will be the death of him, because his hands refuse to work.

@MargaretSimons I joined about a week ago and finding it very friendly to newbies, high or low profile ones. I think you're safe to unlock your account to followers. It's a bit rough around the edges, but promising.
