Sometimes I am astounded with how I get these

Back at it with the Workforce Australia saga - they’re blatantly lying to me now. In fact I’m working *more* than I was when I got the exemption from attending appointments, and yet they are saying my “reported paid work has reduced or ended”

APPARENTLY IT WAS WRONG the appointment I attended today because I thought I had to was considered in their system as “voluntary” 🙃

NEW: I have obtained, under FOI, a secret Department report that initially recommended the Targeted Compliance Framework - aka, the unlawful "mutual obligations" scheme It reveals that, like Robodebt, they recklessly built this thing to punish "entitled" frauds who never existed

Just voted for the Sydney Mardi Gras directors and provided a proxy for motions at the AGM - I have work that day so can't attend myself

Hm ⚧️ the analogue system

suspending welfare recipients' income during extreme weather events is one of the low-key evil things our government regularly does with very little outrage

last year, when I was on mutual obligations during the vic bushfires, I asked the Department to turn off payment suspensions for everyone in the area They said no, telling me they actively encourage job providers to contact people in disaster zones x.com/JeremyPoxon/st…

told my mum about an opportunity at work I could get and she’s trying to tell me not to take it 😒

ran for parliament and took some photos in a field hours before I announced my candidacy bc I hated the ones I used last time

The Department's guide to welfare administration: 1. Outsource millions of punishments to private providers & automated tech 2. Create national scandal by breaking social security law 3. Force victims to stay on hold for hours, days, & do all the work to fix unlawful decisions

I can see now

got threatened at work again today, gotta love retail 👍
