Its a scandal Tsunami.
what is troubling, is we know LNP will stop at nothing to retain power.
the less electable they become, the less scrupulous they will become.
and coming of a very low base, in terms of scruples,
this is worrying IMO.
Na, they'll get booted. Have to. Surely we are not that morally bankrupt as a country?
Can see a massive opportunity for quality independents.
massive opportunity for horrible narcissist wellness independents too.
Australian politics, culture and environment are some of few spheres,
where I become a pessimist.
I would love to see lobby groups outlawed in Oz, or just made redundant through transparent reporting of donations and "dinner" event ticket purchases.
They are a blight on our democracy.
Shouldn't be too surprised. The minute Abbott and Malcolm followed Murdoch's orders to cripple the MBN, Australia's broadband was doomed.Bloody hell.

No surprise, the NBN is a cut rate piece of crap and everyone knows it. FFS we have coax from the node to our house, and the node ain't close - coax was first patented in the late 19th century. Yet the morons in power reckon that is good enough for a 21st century network? Short sighted idiots.

If Australia doesnt select Labors' vastly superior climate policy at the next election,
we might as well raise the drawbridge,
and eat each other.
and WTF are the Greens doing attacking the policy hard and fast?
bunch of uptight hippies couldn't be pragmatic if the planet depended on it,
oh wait.

A vow to fund 465,000 free TAFE courses – including 45,000 new ones – will be central to federal Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese’s bid to win office next year.
Two days after he unveiled Labor’s long-awaited climate change policy, the Labor leader on Sunday will launch a $1.2bn policy aimed at fixing Australia’s skills shortages.
On top of the boost in vocational training, if elected Labor will spend $481.7m to fund 20,000 more university places over the next two years.
There will also be $100m pledged towards supporting 10,000 apprentices to be trained in jobs associated with the new energy sector.
At the heart of Labor’s pitch for the education and training vote, to be unveiled at a rally in Sydney on Sunday, is a promise to offer 465,000 free TAFE courses targeted at the parts of the economy crying out for workers plus the emerging energy and technology sectors.
It will also seek to address worker shortages in the “care economy” such as childcare, aged care, disability care, nursing and community services.
Mr Albanese will tell the rally the plan represents “good policy for jobs, good policy for people looking to train or retrain, and good policy for businesses, which need more skilled workers”.
Labor claims there are 85,000 fewer apprenticeships and traineeships than when it lost office in 2013.
Labor’s skills spokesman Richard Marles said the plan’s TAFE component was aimed at addressing shortages on the National Skills Commission’s skills priority list.
“We’ve got a skills crisis in Australia at the moment, we need more tradies and care workers, this is the plan that will fix the problem.”
There will also be a priority given to universities that offer places to people who come from families where no one has gone to university before.

Universities that target students from regional, remote and outer suburban areas and Indigenous people will get the bulk of the extra money being offered by Labor.There will also be a priority given to universities that offer places to people who come from families where no one has gone to university before.
The Greens have become just like any other political party, once you dangle power in their faces they just become another mob of politicians. This really became obvious when they swapped preferences with, I think it was Clive Palmer, a couple of elections ago in the SA Senate election.
The Greens were supposed to be different and put principle above power. But that doesn't work because power corrupts always.

Part of the issue with apprenticeships is that all the privatisation years ago meant that we no longer had the SEC offering heaps of apprenticeships, Gas and Fuel the same, plus various other government instrumentalities which used to have plenty of apprentices. They didn't think of these sorts of flow on effects when they decided to sell everything off.

I know many people in the trades and they won’t put people through now and are only looking for subcontractors due to the industrial manslaugher laws. I would love to know if its a clear trend in Victoria as yet?
You could substitute that for all the political parties but just change number 3 around

If Albo keeps releasing good policy,
And LNP keep non-consensually rooting women and children and shovelling our money to cotton and coal companies in full veiw and accepting bribes and openly lying and undermining any attempts to hold them accountable,
This should be one of the biggest electoral routs in our history.
Should.
If the majority of Australians understand the truth about Morrison and his Religious Discrimination Bill, Albo and Labor will be morals.
All the proposed legislation does is give people/organisations the Freedom to Discriminate.
Rorts not routes. The Libs wont give in easy. There are many more railway stations that need carparks, and sports grounds that need upgrades (coincidentally they are all in marginal seats).
