Scotty has nailed this one to a tee. The change to foreign investment laws yesterday was another stroke of genius.


I liked this move from Snotty from Marketing. Needs a fancy name though. AssetKeeper maybe?

Another dud program from Snotty from Marketing.


Just 38 of a predicted 36,000 food boxes have been delivered under a $9.3m government initiative designed to deliver emergency food supplies to older Australians isolating throughout Covid-19.

The greater need in the housing sector is for social housing but there are no votes there for Scotty from Marketing. The package is a blatant give away to the well off who are the only people that can afford to spend $150,000 on a renovation. or $750,000 on a new house. People on JobSeeker or JobKeeper will not be looking to spend that sort of money.



Frankie, your point would be better made if you don't use underlining.


Consider the following. which is easier to read?

It was removed because it led to another cheap insult (baiting) which would have been reported (rightly)

Both are against site rules so they were both removed

Albanese and his mates should start ordering pizzas for their next disastrous election defeat. A landslide for Scotty boy.

Albo is so out of his depth. It's a shame in a way as he seems fat more genuine than his fake news predecessor.

From Domain.com



"HomeBuilder is a good idea gone bad. It is possibly the most complex and least equitable program the government could have devised to deliver construction jobs.

It gives $25,000 to people who already own a home or already have enough money to buy one while delivering a minimal stimulus to extra construction. It isn’t a program to create jobs, it is a way of making people who are reasonably well off richer."

you are falling apart my friend, no one cares about this opinion peace.

first home buyers will now be able to buy homes, and others including pensioners who under normal circumstances can now renovate and not downgrade. As for social housing well they can wait until the greens get in, or for some of them maybe stop blaming everyone for their mistakes and be grateful with what you get.

first you went on a rant that who can afford to buy a house and land for $750,000 TT, then you were fact checked as spreading fake news, and now your reaching for an opinion peace. Give up.

Scomo on the right path to an election victory. As PM during this covid period one can only describe his efforts as simply sensational. :thumbsup

I was a bit disappointed that Snotty from Marketing didn't get an award today.


Surely his contribution to Binomial nomenclature is worthy of an AO at least.
