I can sometimes see how neoliberals might truly believe that austerity is a good thing, or that trickle-down economics are real But I can never understand how they can look at countries like the US and go "healthcare more like their system please, I'm not an evil piece of poo poo at all!"

This Everest Opera house poo poo is ridiculous. Alan jones is obviously using this as some kind of wedge to get Louise Herron out of the top position because he is sick of having concerts on the Opera House steps disturbing him. that can be the only explanation for him being so mad about it.

Also he is an arrogant arsehole who hates people defying him. I don't doubt that he had some personal reason for caring initially but at this point it's just the principle of the thing.

I actually had a pretty good chuckle yesterday when labor rolled out their “fair go action plan” and officially beat the libs to using the term they were obviously planning to use. That’s some grade A trolling right there.

The GUARDIAN posted:Asked if Australia would be held to the target to reduce emissions by 26% to 28% from 2005 levels, Morrison said: “No, we won’t … we’re not held to any of them at all. Nor are we bound to go and tip money into that big climate fund. We’re not going to do that either. I’m not going to spend money on global climate conferences and all that nonsense.”

Listening to Morrison speak is driving me up the wall lately. He just says Labor want more taxes but then promises government money to prop up the GST or drought-affected farmers and what do you know, taxes don't get a mention when he does it

The Liberal's messaging is just further dog whistling to lovely boomer/gen x sentiment that anyone who can't afford a house or manage to not live pay to pay are lazy stupids afraid of hard work. I'm not sure what Labor are trying to do other than troll the gently caress out of the Liberals, which TBH is fine by me because I'm only voting for them as a second preference anyway.
