"If the major parties insist on saying they don't want to get more tax from the gas industry than they get from the beer industry, that's the kind of policy position that's going to hand a seat like this to an independent or minor party."

How has EVERY single media organisation failed to mention this?!
"there is no way to hold an effective RC into the Bondi attacks without jeopardising the trial of the alleged perpetrator. Once a case is before the courts... even a royal commission is subject to sub judice." #auspol

What happened to Australia's media after the Bondi attack? It judged & blindly swung into campaign mode.
Royal commissions air everything publicly. One on Bondi would influence matters before the court because they are subject to sub judice laws. #auspol nickfeik.substack.com/p/weaponisin...

The Bondi has not only brought a laser sharp attention that Australia is not immune from terrorist attacks but how the media can whip up a storm with non stop one sided hate bait articles, like a rabid dog they need to be put down or at the very least reminded Australia is made up by many cultures.

Have OP noticed the TV stations ticker line and newspaper headlines always use emotive words, creating (adding & abetting) more hate and division. It’s more than a pile on PM it’s an Affront to Australians.

The ALP need to realise they will be criticised whatever they do, so how about do things that are good? And do things to please those who voted for you not those who never will.
The AFR run a 2 year campaign to get the ALP to weaken the changes to super tax concessions to make it easier to avoid paying the tax.
The ALP does it.
