Some brands clearly take us to town. Cheaper to import.

Only half the questions the Department of Jobs and Small Business took on notice from the last round of estimates were answered by the due date April 20th, with some not returned until the day before this round. I don't know what the late questions were. How common is this?

I loving hate Jeff Bezo and I hope in retaliation, the Australian government makes it so GST is only charged on purchases from Amazon.

I'm sure Bezos is terrified of losing the lucrative Australian market.

He quit as an MP when Labor stopped binding on gay marriage, hilarious. What a loving piece of poo poo. Clearly a committed unionist there.

I studied German history for a while and I had a very specific imagery in mind of what I thought had been posted. This is nothing like that, I wouldn't even call that a hook nose. I think someone just confused banker with jew and jumped the gun. Honestly, Bandt should just come out and say 'this doesn't look anything like a Jewish charicature'. He's already got the mustard out of the jar, he isn't getting it back in now.

Doesn’t Amazon already apply sales tax to US states separately? What’s the big deal if they apply GST when the shipping address is Australian? Amazon are already remitting GST to the ATO from their Australian entity.

Welp Guardian Liveblog has officially melted downquote:Oh wow this is dire today. Absolutely dire. Re the Amazon thing, they would be profit-taking via internal "importing" anyway so this move simply enforces their multi-market advantage.

The major difference is that American sales tax is applied at the end of the transaction, not required to be part of an advertised MSRP or RRP. The prices in Australia must be after GST.

Bezos commitment to not paying any tax ever is still impressive. Also you shouldn't support amazon because their working conditions are bad, even for the US.

not answering questions on notice is a Very Bad Look for the department in question but when push comes to shove there’s not that much that can be done about it

The Turnbull government has pulled a bill applying more regulation to the live sheep trade after the Liberal MP Sussan Leysignalled she would vote for a Labor amendment applying a ban on exports. The government was due to bring forward its legislation applying tougher regulations to the scandal-prone industry, but yanked the bill on Thursday morning after Ley signalled to government colleagues she would cross the floor. That cow footage is  timing

The Before Times posted:It just means the Dept has to provide a response to the committee later on. Yeah, I was just implying that I got the impression that she trotted that line out every time she didn’t want to answer a question (so for all of them). As the questioner pointed out she wouldn’t even answer the question about if the police had interviewed her. It’s not like that was some obscure detail that she would need to look up first.

Watt asked her a question, got "I'll take it on notice", turned to Cash's secretary, asked them the same question, got an answer. She was absolutely stonewalling on every question because she can, and because she wanted to.

Senator Cameron's questions were often answered with "that's a matter before the courts" and similar. He and the other Labor senators thought that wasn't a good enough reason not to answer, especially as Liberal senators got answers regarding the courts and the CFMMEU
