“#Russian warnings to #Australia that “you have no cards” to stop Russian #military activity in the #IndoPacific have been mocked by #AnthonyAlbanese, who has dismissed an incendiary letter from an #ambassador as #authoritarian “#propaganda”.

The fact and his merry mob entertain the charade over Indonesia makes you wonder are they putting Country before job?

“#Gambling ads are everywhere – even during the #footy. It’s not normal, and it’s not OK. I’ve written the bill to ban them. It’s ready. The major parties stalled. In a #balanced #parliament, we can make it law. #Independence works.” — MP/Candidate #Goldstein, Daniels.

Hey #AnthonyAlbanese #ShayneNeumannMP #DavidCrisafulli, as the song goes in relation to providing appropriate aid and support it: "Should've Been You".

Remember where you came from and admit to your enormous privilege and then do something positive with it.

It should NEVER come to this, for anyone.

“Donald Trump was seen only months ago as a disruptive force who brought huge danger to #AnthonyAlbanese at this election campaign.
But things changed when the US president brought chaos and confusion to world markets and became an economic risk to #Australia with his #tariff policies.

Now we have hard #data on how this is reshaping the #election – and ️hurting #PeterDutton️ at the halfway point of the #campaign.”

Day 16 Invest Rent

“The #PM is asked how Labor's announcements will affect #Australians who already own one home, but are looking at #purchasing a second.

It's simple, the PM says — #houses will be #cheaper.

"If you increase supply, you assist everyone because you have an impact on #

If you’re a first home buyer, if you want to buy a home but they’re too expensive, Labor does not give a

“The #PM was asked whether he'd commit to retaining #Plibersek as environment minister for a second term.

PM "You know what I'll commit to? Trying to win this #election," the PM says.
Sensing more is needed, he adds the following:

PM "#TanyaPlibersek has been a friend of mine for a long time. We live in neighbouring seats, we're good #mates and she's doing a *fantastic job*."

This is the Labor Environment Policy day.

“In photos and footage from the launch, the #PrimeMinister can be seen getting ready to shake #Plibersek’s hand before his speech. She looks ready to give him a hug, while he puts his hand out for a shake. Plibersek then blows an air kiss before Albanese moves on to greet other #Labor ministers.”

“I want to help #YoungPeople and #FirstHomeBuyers achieve the dream of #HomeOwnership,” — #AnthonyAlbanese said.

#PeterDutton (#LNP / #Liberal) has announced a $10bn tax cut measure, which would give #Australians who earn up to $144,000 relief of up to $1,200 in the upcoming financial year.”

Does #Labor want people to #buy or #rent? Where is this discussion? If not where is the plan to rollback (middle class #welfare) house investment & #NegativeGearing? Where is the talk of #EducationalDebt? Free TAFE for Tradies won’t solve these problems.
