#boughtbyelection

Mr Butler defended the delay in announcing the increases until after the by-election

https://www.news.com.au/finance/money/costs/aussie-families-slugged-with-an-436-a-year/news-story/3c9a3f232e94a42d09b409e79b486654

I don't care when it was announced that he signed off on the increase is a disgrace

He can spin it anyway he likes e.g.  they asked for 6%+ but their only getting approval for an average of 3% is crap

Our increase is 3.6% :banghead. Ironic in that we are currently getting quotes to change as I'm sick of being ripped off. All 4 insurers we are looking at will be increasing their premiums by more than the average

Just goes to prove in this space (private health insurance premium increases) both sides are exactly the same...gutless

Blokes a flog. Thank goodness it was him at the helm. With a half decent leader we were looking at 2-3 terms of these fools.
If you didn’t know better, you would think he was a long term plan from the Libs, planted to destroy Labor from within.

Why are Labour spending money on ads for the tax cuts ?
