Former SA One Nation Leader Jennifer Game has won a $15k settlement against PHON. "You could fill a town hall with the people (candidates) they have short changed". Forcing candidates to buy corflutes that are illegal to use in SA. It isn't a party, it is a private corporation.

Remember that in 2010, Pauline Hanson said she hated Australia and was emigrating to Britain ? She only lasted there a year. Such a patriot.

Victoria Police say there were NO threats made regarding Pauline Hansons $2,000 per head cancelled fundraising, to help pay for fuel for her $2 million plane, gifted to her from her 100% full One Nation shareholder Gina Whinehart. NO threats made. More lies from Hanson and her cult.

I am so fkn sick of people like this using ADHD as an excuse for being a dickhead. I have it! It makes me terrible at emails and doing my washing; it doesn't make me try to cover up a genocide, or call a powerful neurodiverse woman 'problematic' while speaking to an IDF sniper.

Replying to @PaulineHansonOz
Why do you need to milk the public of so much money if you are truly so popular? What are you doing with the money? Flooding social media with trolls and misinformation. UnAustralian.

In the past two weeks, Albo has been flat‑out shoring up Australia’s fuel security, buying emergency diesel, diversifying import sources, launching a national taskforce, & managing the fallout from the Geelong refinery fire. PH has done fk all that's helpful in that time. Fk all.

Poor lean. HERE IS WHAT LABOR HAS. ACTUALLY DONE! (As opposed to NO CRED RED! Here is a snapshot of what the ALP has done since being elected: (please feel free to add; Industrial Relations: - Multi Employer bargaining - Allows unions to negotiate more effectively - Same job, same pay - end labour hire rorts - Wage theft and industrial manslaughter criminalised - Increased minimum wage - Long-term consistent casual employees given right to permanent employment (Employee choice pathway) - Legislated right for workers to not answer their phones on their days off. (Right to disconnect) - Employment agreements that prevent employees from discussing their pay with each other have been banned. (Pay secrecy clauses) Cost of Living: - $300 energy bill rebate - Delivery of more housing and sought agreement from the states to streamline zoning and planning regulations (National Housing Accord) - Establishment of fund to provide long-term consistent funding for social and affordable housing (Housing Australia Future Fund) - First back‑to‑back increase to Commonwealth Rent Assistance in more than 30 years. -Expanded (and expanding) length of paid parental leave (PPL). Increased flexibility of PPL. Added superannuation to PPL payments. International relations: - Fixed China relationship (tariffs ended) Environment - Legislated emissions reduction target - Climate Change Minister must update parliament annually on progress towards target. - Safeguard mechanism (Reducing big companies carbon pollution) - Capacity investment scheme - direct govt investment in renewables - Environmental Protection agency established (In progress - before parliament) - independent from government and makes decisions on development - can regulate state decisions - can increase restrictions on native logging. - Investment to double Australian recycling capacity - Massive areas of ocean designated as Marine Parks which bans fishing. This is the biggest contribution to ocean conservation by area for two years in a row - 2023 and 2024. Finance / Economics - Double tax on superannuation above $3m. - Bigger tax cuts for low and mid income earners (stage three tax cuts). Higher taxes for high income earners. Resetting of Morrison's tax bracket flattening for high income earners. - 2023 budget delivered Australia's largest budget surplus. 2024 surplus the first consecutive surplus in an Australian federal budget since 2007-08. - Multinational minumum corporate tax rate reforms - Halved inflation. Wages are now growing faster than inflation. - Highest level of job creation in a single parliamentary term. Unemployment rate well below OECD average. - $4 billion dollars in savings from hiring fewer consultants and contractors in the Australian Public Service. Healthcare - Medicare Urgent Care Clinics - Bulk billed - Medicines on PBS cheaper by 30% - Fixing aged care (Nurse in every nursing home) - Fixing NDIS rorts (in progress) - Bulk billing reforms and investment which has stopped the slide and has led to an increase in the proportion of doctors visits that are bulk billed.

Can One Nation actually govern if they can't manage their own finances? The Guardian reports the party in Queensland has repeatedly missed critical legal deadlines and hasn't filed an annual return since 2022. Carelessness like this speaks volumes. #auspol

Huge win on lobbying reform today with reports the govt will establish a public register for sponsored pass holders replicating the voluntary register I established, limit access to the building & publish more information about who has access. We still need more reform to ensure ALL lobbyists (not just 3rd party lobbyists) are properly regulated by a body with teeth, and to shut the revolving door between government and industries. smh.com.au/politics/federal/…
