Imagine having a government that wants to enable people rather than control them. That’s what social democracy should be about.

I'll be on blue sky a lot more. Especially since the Deck Blue app now pretty much works like old tweetdeck did

The ECQ have begun distributing LNP preferences in South Brisbane, the party having finished third behind Labor after the distribution of One nation preferences. This means Labor has gained South Brisbane from the Greens. #qldvotes

The lie was about the cramps, the reality was not wanting to have to clean up the vomit with the pool skimmer

Why did our parents used to tell us we needed to wait half an hour after food to get back in the pool?

People with student debt are hurting. This down payment on wiping all student debt can't be held to ransom until after the next election.
The PM says he wants the next government to cut debts, but he could do it now.
Today I wrote to the PM, offering to pass the cuts this year.

LOL - Atlas's last Pennsylvania poll simply eliminated half the state's black population from its likely voter screen.

I was going to say something here regarding clown shows, lack of due diligence on inputs, polluted modelling and excuses. But far from me to say

Now in a *model*, it's fine to build in some mean reversion. We do that in ours, in fact (polling averages are somewhat regressed to the previous election a uniform swing). But these are supposed to be polls, not models.

If I could give you guys one piece of political advice. Remember back in the noughties when GetUp use to claim credit for everything and got laughed at with the running joke "Thanks GetUp!" for literally anything that happened? You don't want to be there.

Labor's student debt announcement is testament to pressure from the Greens & the community.
But 80% of a lifetime of debt is still a lifetime of debt. We can't stop here.
If Labor really wanted to wipe student debt they could do it right now - not after an election.

Since Charlie Cook retired, the Cook Political Report is like the hottest political takes dressed up as psephology from two weeks ago. It's a shame.

All these people whinging about student debt lowering - are you arseholes? I paid off my $100K debt and would die in a ditch to get all education from pre-school to Doctorates made free for people today.
