As well as anger at Cardinal Pell, the protesters also voiced outrage at Opposition Leader Peter Dutton’s attendance, amending their chant to “George Pell go to hell, take Dutton there as well”.

The sheer level of political incompetence required to self wedge your party on what was potentially a complete non-issue really sets Dutton apart. He *shudder* may yet make Scumbo look decent in hindsight.

Reading across a bunch of different media I'm surprised how many claim that WA was "closed to the world" or "closed to the rest of Australia" for the entirety of the pandemic. It reopened the state border in December 2020 and remained open in 2021 to the states that didn't have major outbreaks and lockdowns, i.e. every state except NSW, Victoria and the ACT.

I don't know what media you're reading but they sound like shitheads, OP

Absolutely agreed. Funnily enough my workplace has had PWC consultants before (not about tax dodging of course) so I’m looking forward to the next time someone suggests it.

Anyway, Albanese apparently showed up to Sky News. At this point, he's not even pretending that he's progressive, is he?

If he were showing up on Offsiders I'd be concerned. Just showing up on Sky News isn't the massive ideological swing going on Fox News in the US would be, Sky is in lots of airports, shops, etc and it's worth trying to reach those viewers.

Yeah keeping in mind that the Liberals absolutely did not want a Republic and served up a dogshit option, it's amazing how similarly Labor is doing a bad job on the Yes vote despite being for it.

I was concerned that I had a racist wingnut in my neighbourhood as I found a Yes pamphlet torn up in my front yard but it was just my daughter tearing it up after throwing a tanty

It's a dwindling number by demographics though, ie those owner-voters are dying and not being replaced

Or one home that was owned becomes 3-4 that then get rented

Help to buy is better than letting people dip into their super but it will just continue to inflate the market whereas removing negative gearing would at least go some way to taking over-leveraged people out.

Anyway I agree, you really can't win with referendum questions. Put too much detail in, like the Republic one, and you split the yes vote. Keep it vague like this one, and people get scared about unknowns.

What we are seeing from the Coalition is nothing more than partisan politics and another grab at winning the culture war. If the Coalition/Dutton was so concerned about First Nations rights, they'd have listened to them while they were in government rather than funding non indigenous organisations over community support because communities aren't their mates from private school
