That's because Labor's political strategy is to stand back and watch as the LNP perpetually falls down Penrose stairs.

The ALP's most popular tax plan is to not support the LNP's corporate tax cut for large companies. The average Australian voter can be convinced that a huge fuckoff mine will create jobs but trying to sell corporate tax cuts as job creation is not as easy. The Liberals were also dumb enough to admit that they were copying Trump.

On Insiders this morning, some Fin Review hack was saying that 49% of people polled support corporate tax cuts. That 49% might think by cutting tax rates they’ll get a wage increase?

Surely half the average punters on the street don’t think that the money saved by corporate tax rate cuts will end up in their pockets as a wage increase? loving Australians.

He probably meant to say 'among Coalition voters'. The only survey I've been able to find puts it at 15% if I've read it right.

Thanks for the critical analysis that I’m clearly lacking, Starshark.

The 49% is for supporting the Liberals overall "economic plan". Support for the corporate tax cut by itself is much lower. The disparity here is probably due to common narrative that the LNP are the better economic managers (despite no evidence for this). When you start looking at specific economic policies, public support falls dramatically. The franking credit thing also likely boosted LNP overall support as Labor was unable to shake the "ALP attacking pensioners" angle.

Basically, I blame our trash media. Look what happened to Alberici when she doubted the Liberals' economic genius.

Person just sent me a picture of the board in the staff room. It's got names and days that they were sick or absent.

I'm fairly sure that they can't do something like this, especially if it's not like a "heads up these guys won't be in" but more of a retrospective "these guys hosed up cause they were sick"

A "sausage roll" is sausage mince cooked in pastry.

A "sausage sizzle" is the activity where you make the meal "sausage on bread".

If people like Jordan Peterson were anally pedantic about terms that are actually important we wouldn't be in this mess.

The question clearly says it is in one side of bread, how loving stupid are the people calling it a sausage sandwich.

Sausage between two bits of bread are a sausage sandwich. One bit of bread is a sausage sizzle.

A Well-Known Brisbane-Based Jeweller does this.

If "times get tough" I.e. not enough of a profit, skilled workers get encouraged out to make room for cheaper new staff.

His competitor from Sydney has been thankful for the pre-trained staff since he moved up here some decades ago and basically runs his business on the staff turnover from the other guy (many jewellery buying types stick with the salesperson not the company).

But because the company also owns a whole bunch of cbd real estate it doesn't matter if the jewellery store doesn't make enough profit; he'll just close it and replace it with a bank or something similar.
