ABC fall over themselves to promote Hanson's mob
September 21, 2026 at 10:55 PM
Read the complete article on ABC, there were two different proposals flagged as seems reasonable. ABC commentary focussed on the first proposal not the second, disingenuous as is usual lately

Again and again, he also is trying to get a negative comment about Trump and if he isn't a complete idiot he would know that Diplomacy is a requirement. Trash talking leaders of other countries and closed door conversations are Diplomacy.

AND the engagement with Asia what an absolute idiot

The audacity of wanting Aboriginal culture to be pared back, it's an ancient and vital part of our history, cruel and sad as much of it is. Let him and the LNP keep their bigoted views out of Australian society
September 19, 2026 at 7:35 AM
The religious zealots are a menace, Abbott's bigoted fingers all over this. This is the problem in Trump's America, we have a separation of church and State and that includes Government schools that are required to provide secular education.

All roads point to John Howard

New 16.5b in additional funding for public schools over the decade. To do this they had to pass legislation changing the funding floor for the federal share of school funding, states are primarily responsible for state school funding

I think that if you check we are a Federation and the states have the powers for local police, criminal laws etc. I suppose that each has to enact powers
September 18, 2026 at 10:47 PM
My mistake on the date but Howard was the PM who changed the School funding laws from needs based to market driven, dismantling the previous funding model
September 18, 2026 at 3:11 AM
Howard changed the laws and funding in 1990, abolished restrictions on funding for new private schools regardless of demographics and existing public school capacity. later changed the rule that SES modelled on average income rather that actual parents wealth. Good luck changing any of that

No need to listen to Burke, media this morning have interviewed someone from uni about students, A Rivzi, McKenzie, Kos? the pollster, RN Joyce, Canavan on and on. Media try to be players and influence policies, why not wait for the actual facts, this isn't a game
September 16, 2026 at 10:58 PM
You don't enact alaw without the Senate, a good idea has to be supported by both houses
September 16, 2026 at 9:06 PM
There were two proposals to be debated and investigated but as usual facts are skimmed over. Both proposals may be bad ideas but the rush always to angst doesn't help anyone.
September 16, 2026 at 1:07 AM
Why the headline ABC, there are two proposals yet the headline is making a false claim. This has started the usual carry on without facts. Read the proposals, the two proposals! These two proposals may be bad but let's debate facts not half truths

Light pollution in my state is a council law where Ilive and they do enforce it , maybe check your council as they may have bylaws about this
September 15, 2026 at 10:55 PM
Everyday and when facts are given to them instead of researching they ignore them. ABC are breaching their charter, they make asides and comment after an interview is finished, worst of all is the "reporting" of stories from newspaper articles. ABC verify, what a joke
September 15, 2026 at 5:23 AM
I thought that the LNP were thinking about supporting the legislation and changed to say no just after White House comment that interfering with Social Media companies would be punished.
September 14, 2026 at 10:49 PM
ON, ON, ON, non stop. This is mission accomplished, it's falling into the ON trap to post or say something and all media complies, non stop all morning. Some Australian media do this also, make a claim on front page and it sets off media plus social media to go on and on, mission accomplished!
September 14, 2026 at 10:39 PM
Howard abolished the policy of no funding for new private schools where a public or private school existed. He also changed the funding SES model that favoured private schools
September 14, 2026 at 8:51 PM
2026/7 budget local infrastructure fund.New $2b eligible projects roads,footpaths, bridges culverts,water and wastewater infrastructure. Electricity grid connections and upgrades , public transport works. Infrastructure to support new housing. That will assist councils, worth checking facts first
September 14, 2026 at 8:43 PM
ABC gleefully reporting ON rubbish again falling into the trap of promoting them even though ON bar ABC and the Guardian. It works in ON favour because they trash talk ABC and ABC falls over themselves to give them large amounts of airtime
September 14, 2026 at 8:17 PM
We had non stop demands to get rid of these, gotcha questions planted on Murdoch front page and now they are doing it the weeping and wailing is for a purpose.
September 14, 2026 at 5:17 AM
I also point to the renewed relationships with our nearest neighbours
September 14, 2026 at 4:59 AM
They and others are focussed on taking paint off the PM, it's obvious
