In fairness, AFAIK they were the first and only ones to be reporting on any of the Barnababy stuff by a few months, and they haven't been wrong so far. That's not to say they can't be, but they've had a decent track record so far.

loving lmao if it is Canavan's.

I saw three trucks with red billboards on the back on warrigal road today. I thought it was for the movie but nope, it is a campaign against Kelly O'dwyer driving around her electorate.

Asking why she hasn't taken action on paid domestic violence leave.

I want to find a picture of them but there isn't anything on twitter... yet.

The comments suggest the Coalition will target Labor for pushing for higher wages despite the fact the government’s own projected surplus in 2020-21 is highly dependent on optimistic wage growth assumptions.

The adults in charge have historically been quite bad at math.

Tony Abbott, champion for women

quote:

In a major speech on the eve of International Women's Day, Ms Plibersek described the GST on tampons a "dumb decision". "Twenty years later it's still a dumb decision, and we just have to fix it," she said. "Australia levies GST on tampons but we don't apply it to Viagra. Only a bunch of blokes sitting around a table would come to the conclusion that sanitary pads are anything other than an essential good."

But Mr Abbott disagreed, telling Sydney radio station 2GB this afternoon any such move would be wrong. Joe Hockey, who served as treasurer under Mr Abbott in 2015, said the tax should be lifted and vowed to lobby states and territories to make the change. "My distinguished treasurer was wrong then, and Tanya Plibersek is wrong now," Mr Abbott said today.

"Look, once you start having these sorts of exemptions, where does it end? Where does it end? We have to broaden the tax base, not start carving out politically correct exceptions."

...........

Mr Abbott, who also served as minister for women after taking office in 2013, said the Liberal Party, "needs to do better when it comes to getting capable women into the Parliament". He said, "targets are fine", but added he was, "very wary of quotas. I think quotas are a problem because then people aren't always thought to be there on merit," he said.

"And look, I'm a little worried about what often sounds like an anti-man agenda."

Speaking of "anti-man agenda" a guy at work today claims women don't get called out like guys do. And we're also run by a matriarchy.

Cue me and the other guy trying not to facepalm while trying to explain that maybe, just maybe, men and women are socialised differently and respond differently to different styles of communication...

*Sigh*. You heard it here first, folks, the anti man agenda is alive and well.
