.CAPTAIN QUOLL

Woah, I just had a flashback.

Someone needs to sit the PM down and make him watch the full Utopia back catalogue. #auspol

When we say #raisetherate, we mean #raisetherate for everyone.

"So in a month the RBA became more confident that inflation would get back to 3% by mid-2025 and yet still decided rates needed to go up. To top it off, on Tuesday the RBA revised down its forecast for GDP growth this year from 1.6% to 1.25%." theguardian.com/business/grogo…

The Reserve Bank of Australia has made an ad, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative. #Budget2023 #auspol

In the most acute housing crisis in decades, putting limits around generous tax concessions on investment properties is long overdue reform. This push will hopefully see at least one of the major parties catch up with community sentiment. smh.com.au/politics/feder…

"Why was inflation something that was outside of the Coalition's control, but is now as you say able to be controlled by Labor?" Angus Taylor "we're not in government" What a dribbler. #auspol #npc

The Howard Govt promised to negotiate a sea boundary with Timor in good faith - then spied on their negotiating team. Lawyer Bernard Collaery called out this sordid conduct. Our Govt prosecuted him. In stark contrast, today he’ll receive Timor’s highest medal of honour. #auspol

Tomorrow, the average HECS debt will go up by $1,584 dollars. It's just not fair. Young people are facing a climate crisis, a cost-of-living crisis, and a housing crisis. We shouldn't give them a HECS debt crisis to deal with as well.

1/2: When John Barilaro openly bragged about pork barrelling, the media didn’t publish his audio recordings as they “weren’t obtained with consent”. When Brittany Higgins’ accused Bruce Lehrmann of sexual assault, the media published her texts, without her consent.

BREAKING: Brittany Higgins has released explosive transcripts contradicting Michaelia Cash's claims of what she knew and when — embarrassingly, just days after Cash called for a corruption inquiry into who in Labor knew what and when. #auspol

BREAKING: Senator Sarah Hanson-Young has introduced a Murdoch media Royal Commission bill to the Senate. #auspol

DEBUNKED: “It's not a real fix” ... “It's an accounting trick” ... “No homes will be built” ... FriendlyJordies slices through the furphies being pedalled to block roofs over heads in a housing crisis. Watch and share: #auspol

In many ways, the swift rescue efforts for the billionaires trapped in the Titanic submarine, while poor & desperate refugees are neglected & left to die, mirrors a sad, familiar story of the world that has replayed across history. Little has changed. #OceanGate #submarinemissing

It is make or break time for Albo, if The Voice is as dear to his heart as he says it is (and I believe it is). The Greens have introduced a Murdoch Royal Commission bill — there is crossbench support. Work together, get it done and fight back — or fail.

The winners from proposed changes to the Stage 3 tax cuts: literally everyone No one worse off from 1 July, literally everyone better off than they are right now #auspol

I guess the "average Aussie" isn't part of the *checks notes* 92%??

Is this actually true though? 🙃 Didn’t David McBride get sentenced this week for whistleblowing 🤷‍♂️

Whatever you think about David McBride, the fact is he was imprisoned for one reason: he exposed bloody war crimes committed by Australian troops against unarmed Afghans. #auspol
