Labor are ..... in Victoria the bail laws under 18, like last night 5 kids under 16 killed a guy when the stolen Jeep ploughed into his car ,the same kids have been on bail multi times for theft both home invasion and car jacking ...scum .
Footpath warranty ! Qld debt now over 112 billion. More I think than Victoria, thanks to the chook and her cronies. How to dry root a state............. give it to the Labor party.
Didn't they just deliver a record surplus to keep the mindless idiots who keep voting for them happy??
The debt is around 22,000 for every man, women and child in QLD. The Surplus is a joke with the debt heading for 180 Billion in four years. Nobody is ever held to account for such appalling mismanagement. You just retire and get the order of OZ in Dan's case.
What a find ...........SO FUNNY is the majority of people who vote Labor or Greens , long term are the ones most affected by this shocking management of public funds...............................Oh Well!
Take a look at this: https://documents.parliament.qld.gov.au/tp/2024/5724T299-B266.pdf Chart 2D should make you feel better...
Labor the worker's party --HOW MANY of the current lot are ex-traddies or held a trade job before entering Politics?
Shat on by Tories, shovelled up by labour [emoji849] Live: Labour Party wins UK election in a landslide [emoji90]
Starmer has been hard left all his life. In this election he's copied Rudd and Albo, pretending to be moderate and concealing any policy agenda. UK Labour want to nationalise banks and railways for a start. The fact that this failed last time wont stop them, because too few people are still alive to remember. Open borders, tax & spend, more bureaucracy, more state control. It's all standard socialism and it always fails for anyone other than people who live off the state.
No need to be worried, Albo said it's going to get better. https://www.couriermail.com.au/news/nsw/anthony-albanese-tells-struggling-voters-that-things-will-get-better/news-story/7f8b4459ee0f0eb4c3213632cd36376b

Anthony Albanese tells struggling voters that things will get better Anthony Albanese says Sydney has to embrace higher density living while admitting the city’s appearance may have to change - ‘a price that has to be paid’ to ease the housing crisis.

Followed categories will be added to My News. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has stared down the threat of another interest rate rise, promising Australians that “it is going to get better”. Seeming to shrug off concerns shared by economists about an untamable inflation beast and the risk of another rate hike, the PM told News Corp he was confident the cost-of-living crisis would improve. While Mr Albanese would not comment on how devastating another interest rate rise would be to Labor’s re-election chances, he said he felt confident his cost-of-living measures would deliver relief. “It is going to get better,” he said. “And it’s going to get better because we have been very conscious about putting in place short-term cost-of-living relief that’s immediate in a way that makes the economy in the medium term better. “We’ve deliberately designed our cost-of-living relief to provide support for people who most need it, without putting further pressure on inflation.” Image Unavailable, Please Login Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says things can only get better for cash-strapped Aussies battling the cost-of-living crisis. Picture: Sam Ruttyn It is a confident call from the PM, who has previously been criticised for declaring in the 2022 election he could reduce power prices by $275. The benefits he believes will help improve people’s lives include the Stage 3 tax cuts – inherited from the former Coalition government and redesigned. Mr Albanese said the changes to the cuts had been “a difficult decision” for Labor to make, “but the right decision”. “And as a direct result, every single Australian’s pay packet from this week has got larger, more cash for them in order to deal with cost-of-living pressures,” he said. Mr Albanese brushed off the suggestion that bracket creep would erode the cuts, maintaining the relief would make “a real difference for people”. He also refused to discuss the impact of another rate rise on Labor’s re-election prospects, saying rates were the domain of the Reserve Bank. “What our job is to do is to reduce inflation — and we want it to moderate further,” he said. “We have reduced inflation to almost half of what it was, when we were elected to government.” Budget Calculator Find out if you come out in front Begin Image Unavailable, Please Login Exclusive, independent modelling based on analysis by PwC for News Corp Australia, reveals how the Budget affects you over the next two years The $300 energy bill relief payment, increased superannuation and paid parental leave were also “designed in a way to make things better”, he said. “Real wages have increased, more so than they did in the previous decade, almost a decade of office of the Coalition,” he said. “So people are earning more and then getting to keep more of what they earn is very significant. “And this week already, I have had people come up to me this morning and just say, thank you … I got an extra $180 in my pay, and that will make a substantial difference for people.” Image Unavailable, Please Login Mr Albanese is proud of his government’s record on job creation. Picture: PMO As for the government’s own budget papers showing how, even with tax cuts, personal income tax paid by Australians this financial year will be significantly higher than in 2020-2021, Mr Albanese said the figures reflected “more people in work” who were “earning more”. “Since we’ve been in government, we have created more jobs on our watch than have been created by any first-term government or any government in Australian history,” he said. “So (the figures) are an indication of just how much we’ve made a difference. “Tax intake as a proportion of the national economy, peaked when Peter Dutton was the minister for revenue. It was higher than it is today.” NO CASH SPLASH Asked whether he would take personal responsibility if things got worse for families, Mr Albanese said he was more focused on ensuring “things got better”, but it would be without the “cash splashes” of the Coalition government. Cash splashes — which he said had made inflation worse — would also not be a feature of the upcoming election campaign, he said. He described the tax cuts as “relief” rather than a “cash splash” to help households pay the mortgage and bills Image Unavailable, Please Login Mr Albanese slammed ‘imisinformation’ about renewable energy sources. Picture: Zoe Phillips HOUSING CRISIS Mr Albanese acknowledged the housing crisis facing many Australians, with young families struggling to buy their first home along with soaring rents. He said cities such as Sydney needed to embrace higher densities, pointing to the long-neglected “appalling” thoroughfares such as Parramatta Rd as sites that should accommodate more homes. “This is a problem of neglect of a long period of time,” he said. “We need more, higher density, where it’s appropriate, around railway stations, around transport corridors. “We want to help developers to build rental homes, particularly for affordable housing. “We need to take every opportunity to increase housing supply.” He acknowledged Sydney as it stood might change in appearance, but said that it was the price that had to be paid.

Questioned on whether he felt people underestimated the scale of the infrastructure required to deliver renewable energy, Mr Albanese blamed “misinformation” for the community opposition.

Picture: Getty Images LABOR RE-ELECTION With an election looming and the release of the new draft boundaries, Labor has begun the process of selecting its candidates. Mr Albanese would not be drawn on a date, beyond repeating his view three-year terms were “too short”. “So the idea that I would run to an election next month is certainly not on my mind,” he said. Asked what he felt was Labor’s “defining achievement” given the failure of the Voice to parliament, Mr Albanese nominated navigating the country through a “very difficult economic time”. WEDDING PLANS With the government having lurched from one crisis to the next — the latest being the bombshell resignation of Senator Fatima Payman — it looks unlikely Mr Albanese will be holding a wedding this term. “We haven’t set a date for the wedding yet,” he said. “Yeah, we are talking about it, but the diary is pretty full, I’ve got to say.” While stressing that he did not take an election for granted, he said a wedding could be “in the second term”. “We haven’t finally determined the date yet. We have no intention of having an elaborate, over-the-top wedding”.
