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

Things are getting desperate Chucky

They have gone from certainties to vulnerable

Will be fun watching Albo run from all the hard questions again

[Chuck17]

It just poos me to no end Damo

First of all every single Australian has missed out on a deluxe pizza because of the stupid referendum and now they are spending more money on ads to float their own boats. I wonder what we have missed out on now because of the money spend on that ad?

You're asking why Labor(sic) are spending money? It's just what they do.....

DV crisis
Teacher crisis
Rental crisis
Housing ownership crisis
Nursing crisis
Climate crisis
Indigenous rights crisis

Don’t assume the foetal position Chucky

Come and live in the Philippines brother

This is a third world country with more crisis situations tenfold .. but without the rubbish rules and political correctness that is destroying Australia

And the people here just get on with life happily and are actually happy to have a go

how dumb are these idiots?

yeah inflation we cant get a handle on it, but lets figure it out by letting every one and his dog in the country adding to the already tight rental market amongst everything else.

gaybo is exactly how i thought he would be. A left wing fool with no concept how to run a cook raffle let alone a country.

[Francois Jackson]

budget is nice. 

ive realized the people who voted for them in Vic are actually more stupid than those who they elected.

Can anybody explain the coalition's nuclear policy to me?

All will be revealed soon enough

Dunno what your rush is??

Your mob not only kept your figures a secret until election day , your leader literally ran , physically ran, from the media asking him for the truth !!

And you give us a whopping two hours to respond in this thread .. typical

According to the The Age the coalition will release the location of seven nuclear power sites. Two of the sites will be in Liberal seats and four or five in National seats. Interesting.

maybe concentrate on the things that really matter like this stuffwit

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-05-30/giles-cancelling-visas-night-and-day/103911488

Immigration Minister Andrew Giles has re-cancelled seven visas of people with criminal histories as he scrambles to rewrite a directive which allowed them to remain in Australia.

Mr Giles has come under sustained pressure over "direction 99", an order he gave in 2023 that "primary consideration" in visa determinations should be given to allowing those with longstanding ties to the country to stay.

Up to 30 non-citizens who had failed character tests used direction 99 to convince an appeals tribunal they should stay, thwarting the government's efforts to deport them. The group including several convicted child rapists and one man charged with murder in early May.

Get your angst Chuck and the idiot should resign

But we're you aware that one on the people he's just cancelled was originally released by Mr Dutton when he was the minister responsible in the Morrison government

[Francois Jackson]

yes and he was 100% wrong. Dutton and his stance on illegals, migration or criminals cant be questioned IMO. Gaybonese and his clowns have lost the plot.

Funny didnt see you have an issue when your mates under their watch released what was it 50 dodgy bastards? Albonese has refused to sack the ministes in charge and funny how you dont want him sacked. Nothing to see there.

also no issue with all the home invasions performed by some of these criminals under the beloved alp. Didnt see you mention that idiot in charge now or andrews should resign

one of those 2 criminals Chuck was this guy. I see a month back gaybo tried to handball it on to WA and now its duttons fault. Everyone except his own.

In his first comments on the case, Mr Albanese sought to shift responsibility to WA authorities as to why Mr Doukoshkan was at liberty.

“The first thing that I would say is that our thoughts, and I am sure the
thoughts of all Australians, will be with those who have been affected
by this,” Mr Albanese said.

“It is inappropriate to comment further, given it’s in the middle of the investigation by WA Police. The state bail schemes are run by the states, by definition, as well, but given the matter is under investigation before the police and the courts, it’s inappropriate to comment.”

Opposition Leader Peter Dutton said the picture of Mrs Simons was “horrific” as he called for Home Affairs Minister Clare O’Neil and Immigration Minister Andrew Giles to be sacked, which Mr Albanese rejected.

“What the government has done here has created a dangerous situation,” Mr Dutton said.

“You can’t be releasing these people into the community. They shouldn’t be out on the streets, and we’ve got bail applications being made by some of these [alleged] offenders [and] the Commonwealth is not even opposing the bail application so the person is being released.”

A federal police statement said the 45-year-old Sudanese man was granted bail after being charged with three counts of failing to comply with his curfew and one count of failing to maintain his electronic monitoring device in good working condition.
