Lambie will pass it for some random veteran exclusion from the program, xenophon’s gang will pass it in return for a letter from the pm saying Kirin are big meanies for shutting down west end

Malcolm Turnbeug posted:Cashless welfare card passed lower house by one vote. Huge shoutout to the LNP member who made a big deal of opposing it then abstained rather than crossing the floor. Sorry in advance to the people who read my senators emails the LNP member who made a big deal of opposing it had previously said she wouldn't cross the floor "because we have to have something in place to deal with these issues" or something like that lol Lambie has been pretty against it recently actually, I'd be surprised if they managed to convince her again.

Didn't Lambie threaten to tell the details of her last deal with the coalition if Morrison didn't tell first? How'd that go? I was betting on some pension fund for families of spies/soldiers killed but couldn't be officially recognised.

And if they try to expand it to DSP and age pension, every lawyer's balls will go to the moon on the thought of being able to get a commission to sue every single business, festival tent or garage sale that doesn't take the card in the country.

I'm honestly suprised anyone got charged. I have full confidence nothing will happen, merly the cost of doing business. Leading bankers head to trial over criminal cartel allegations. quote:A group of some of the most senior investment bankers in the country have been committed to stand trial on criminal charges over an alleged capital raising cartel. They COULD be fined 10% of their revenue, which makes me wonder if that could remove the DEBT AND DEFICIT, but we all know, nothing will happen.

I am very smart. quote:The debt collection agencies that win contracts must have a plan to deal with the "management of escalations and threats" from customers. Contacting your MP or posting on r/australia (where the Media often just copies stories from) is now a threat to the debt collection agency.

I saw that but I assume that's shorthand for threat to reputation, which while loving dumb to write in an easily taken out of context way is still reasonable language. It was a novel half second when I thought they'd actually report a threat of suicide for a welfare check/medical help for the person before cynicism weighed in. E: the threat isn't to the debt collector it's to centrelink's reputation. Tenders must prove how they won't embarrass big daddy tudge by leaving a demonstrable trail of suicides. Also yikes I'm bleak today. Eediot Jedi fucked around with this message at 22:24 on Dec 8, 2020 |

It’s saying when the client threatens to go to their MP. Ie. client says “fix it or I’ll call my MP / call the media” All government funded areas I’ve worked in use that same language. hambeet fucked around with this message at 23:07 on Dec 8, 2020 |

Yeah, the language that they are threatening particular action isn't exactly the concerning part of that. It's common service language.

And in news which comes as a surprise to literally no one: Fair Work Commission could allow agreements which make some workers worse off quote:Industrial Relations Minister Christian Porter will unveil legislation on Wednesday designed to overhaul the nation's workplace laws in a bid to stem job losses and grow employment during the pandemic-induced recession. Yes, by loving over minimum wage staff who are struggling to survive. Now we wait to watch Labor back the changes 100%.

Labor has already committed to opposing them, specifically taking issue with the removal of the better off overall test. They also pointed out that the legislation doesn't even require businesses to be negatively impacted by covid to be allowed to reduce conditions & wages like the government has said, instead they just have to have been impacted by covid, meaning pretty much every business would count.
