Young people can just get fucked eh

Aus has the lowest unemployment payment in the OECD and raising it for over 55s by some as yet undisclosed amount isn’t going to fix that #RaiseTheRateForAll

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

“Can we please hear from a First Nations person?” “We don’t have the time.” - Jenny Ware MP

& that’s that!!

For many university students right now the stereotype of living on two-minute noodles is no longer a joke. Rising costs of living are forcing some students to regularly skip meals to stretch budgets, or consider abandoning their degrees altogether. #abc730 Ellie Grounds

The National Union of Students is doing amazing work standing up for students so they can study without living in poverty. If you’re a journo who wants to include the perspective of a young person in your Budget week coverage, get in touch! Ashlyn Horton #RaiseTheRateForAll

No one in this country has a greater stake in our future than younger Australians. That’s why it makes perfect sense to lower the voting age to 16 and give younger people a real say in our political process. This can only strengthen democracy. #auspol #politas Make It 16

Young people are increasingly concerned about the future of the planet and want to have a say, according to organisers of the Make It 16 campaign. ab.co/3P7ChOw

17 year olds can get married, fly a plane, join the army… but they’re denied a vote on the issues which matter to them - climate, housing, HECS.. It was great to kickstart the MakeIt16 campaign in Canberra with some really smart, passionate young people. abc.net.au/news/2023-06-1…

Any boss who sets a meeting for 10am or 2pm today is a bum.

“We have been gagged for months from telling you that Bruce Lehrmann has been charged with 2 counts of rape by Queensland Police in Toowoomba.” Strong report by @10NewsFirstQLD. The media lawyers fought for months to get this result. Well done to them.

John Howard says he ‘always had trouble’ with the concept of multiculturalism dlvr.it/SyGR3L

Can't believe we lost our former PM, health minister, finance minister, minister for Industry, Science, Energy and Resources, home affairs minister and Treasurer all in one day! It's a blood bath!

The lack of examination of upholding the status quo being seen as 'impartial' and not another form of activism journalism, just from the opposing side is insane to me.

Mahmoud received a scholarship study anywhere in the world, and he chose the University of Melbourne. Devastatingly, he was killed by Israel's genocide last week. Uni Melb's Gaza solidarity encampment renames Arts West to Mahmoud’s Hall.
