People in #Australia were told by the #ALP that "cashless welfare", in other words coercive control by the government over those receiving welfare benefits, was removed, abolished and never to return.

No they just kept it up quietly #Auspol

I told people it was now called #eIM or "enhanced income management" but they didn't believe me.

It's still out there and you can bet if the coalition gets in it will become weaponised once again.

Shine the spotlight on it.
